  1. [quote name='huwgarms' post='1367946' date='Sep 9 2011, 06:35 PM']please do so thanks :-)[/quote] now sold, thanx for interest.
  2. [quote name='huwgarms' post='1366947' date='Sep 8 2011, 08:43 PM']skint at the moment too but need a back up bass asap, if u can £90 posted ill take her?[/quote] hi, it's spoken for - in a private sale - at the moment but if it falls through I'll PM ya! thanx
  3. really nice. i was told - when hunting for mine circa 1992 - best ones were pre 1996/97. I wouldn't trade my 1991 NT 5 Thumb for anything - my 1988 defretted NT4 has EMGs and it's hotter than the 5 string but the 5 is still THE one. I'd love another NT5 string from 1990/91/92. dont do it!!!
  4. unfashionable though they may be (at the moment) and having owned a Ray, a 1959 P-bass and still own a 1964 P-bass, my 1990 NT 5 string Thumb blows them all away - I can get any tone I want from it and it'll never leave me whilst I draw breath - prob same goes for my 1988 NT 4 string - dont bother with new ones (anything after 2003) go for a 80s/90s Thumb. nothing compares!! PS: I dont do metal, Nu or anyway!!
  5. nice looker - like a budget Wal 5 - any recordings/sound files? wenge board too...hmmmmmm.

  13. [quote name='janmaat' post='1359024' date='Sep 1 2011, 05:25 PM']He's the man to ask about the pre he might still have one, or can make one...

  20. [quote name='janmaat' post='1357418' date='Aug 31 2011, 12:40 PM']I put a 2 band active preamp, faithful reproduction of the pre-eb-pre, made by Higgie here from the forum into mine and have discarded any intention to ever get rid of it since.[/quote] yeah, am thinking of doing that as it plays great - would just like the active option too - any link to Higgie's pre in case I cant find it? thanks, mike
