    [quote name='ALFIE NOAKES 900' post='263059' date='Aug 15 2008, 01:37 PM']Following a severe attack of GAS and a realisation that a 4 string Warwick Thumb is the answer to all my tonal wants and needs forever (well, this month at least), I've made up my mind that a Thumb must be obtained somehow. Sadly the funds are low, but I do have three nice basses that I'm just not using at the mo'. Is there someone out there with a Thumb who'd care to strike up a deal based around one, or one and some cash, or possibly a combination of several, of the following: 1) MiM P-Bass with Gotoh bridge and Kent Armstrong humbucker, in the bridge position 2) Warwick Corvette 4 string $$ in black 3) Warwick Steamer Stage 1 4 string I'm based near Birmingham and Redditch, if you want to visit and try. Regards, Phil[/quote] All PMs replied to.

    Guys, Thanks for the info - the two batteries were bought brand new and installed just as I bought the bass, and the previous owner did say that it was heavy on batteries. I've used it on and off over two weeks, probably for a cumulative total of two hours maximum, and always removed the lead when finished (been there before!). I then took my new pride and joy to a band rehearsal, plugged in and............nothing. Switched to passive, and used that for the evening. I'll check out the wiring and soldering soon, but I was hoping it was a known fault with a quick fix. Oh well. Thanks again folks, and any other thoughts, opinions or experiences will be most gratefully received and checked out. Also, any recommended Warwick repair people in Birmingham? Regards, Phil

    Hi, Anyone got any advice on my recently acquired Stage I '94 Streamer, with Bartolinis, 18V electronics and a hunger for batteries? The two new ones lasted for about two hours, and the jack lead was removed as soon as I stopped playing. Anyone got any advice (I'm okay with a soldering iron and component swap if require) or recommendations for a repair centre - I'm in Birmingham. Thanks folks, Regards, Phil

    Would you consider a Warwick Double Buck 4 string in black, for a swap? I'm not entirely sure that it's on its going, but tell me what you think - it may help me make my mind up. Regards, Phil
