  1. "What's it sound like?" With the Thumb being a lot of Maple with Swamp Ash, it is of course a bit brighter but that chest thumping Thumb noise is in there. Especially bright top end as I have just put some new strings on However, it has typical deep Warwick growl. Volume is push/pull for active/passive. Pup pan with me is nearly always round to the front pup. With bass and treble actives full on it is bloody thunderous. More pissed off P than Jaco, but obviously with amp/eq, most things can be coaxed out of it. Quite nice for chain saw murderer power chords though It is a very light bass and very well balanced, just didn't realise with 24 frets I don't know where I am on the 'board half the time. It is a lot of money, but they don't come up often. Despite the deflated prices of Warwicks on Basschat, it's a purdey thing to have on a stand behind me at gigs in case of a broken string. And I will happily do that rather than lose a lot on it. Cheers, Karl.
  2. BBOT = bent bit of tin, or put another way, standard Fender bridge. In this case off a Mexican re-issue. Not everybody likes BadAss bridges and some remove them and replace with a standard bridge. Then they sell the BadAss for a fortune Bump.
  3. They do look damn good and all the important parts are there. A clue on price wouldn't go amiss, I always think "less is unsurprisingly more"
  4. Great amp, top bloke, fill ya boots!
  5. You may be better off sending him a pm. I very much doubt this is still for sale as he hasn't commented on this thread for over 6 months. Good luck, Karl.
  6. Must resist, must resist, must resist, must resist

  8. [quote name='nottswarwick' timestamp='1376074250' post='2169497'] I'm loving this bass. I expect my MTD Bart modified bass will not be of interest though [/quote] Sorry Chris, lovely bass but not really for me I'm afraid. Martyn, pm'd you back. Don't get carried away you Warwick addict you. Cheers, Karl.
  9. Thanks Andy. This years Warwick Limited Edition is also a Thumb bolt on, but no maple board. Thomann have one in for just over £2900. I've not had one offer of trade or to buy. Stunning, superbly made rare bass but seems Warwick are really struggling on BC even the rare ones. Never mind
  10. Presume this has gone Gareth?

  24. So, I'm a bit slow (from Darlington originally you see). If you were prepared to take a Precision with rosewood board, to swap the necks out, would it make any difference if a Precision came along with a maple board?
  25. Just got Mel's 2010 Precision off her. About 6 hours from agreeing a deal to getting the bass in my paws. Couldn't have made it any easier and the bass was in even better nick than described. As everybody else has said, deal with utmost confidence folks, cheers Mel and look after yourself, Karl.
