[quote name='jimbobothy' post='1038089' date='Nov 26 2010, 06:27 PM']I've just got the bass I was after but I'm still on here looking. Since I joined I've been through at least 8 basses to get to this one, hopefully I'll just get a fretless version (Sandberg JJ5 aged somewhat!) at somepoint to accompany it then stop looking, therefore buying! It's just GAS is so compulsive it's hard to stop!![/quote] Aye exactly. You ya daft brush only went and sold the best bass you owned to me I thank yowwwwww Yareeet Jim?

Big thanks for that info chaps My input has been intermittent on my Warwick Thumb and Farnell have none of these in stock at the moment - they use original US Switchcraft but these Maplins ones are a steal considering they have free postage as well!! I splashed out and got two at this ridiculously low price I love the information I can get from Basschat!!

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='982413' date='Oct 9 2010, 11:29 AM']I've played Warwicks for 20 odd years and despite dabbling with a multitude of other basses I always come back to Warwick; in particular the NT Streamers (the earlier the better)... my Corvette/Infinette comes a close 2nd. A couple of recent GAS purchases have reinforced that I'm sticking to my Warwick (i.e. they are up for sale), though I'll still admire other basses. [/quote] That is an amazing collection Mr Hunt

My Warwick 1998 NT Thumb is the dogs bits. That is all.

Well, got to say we - and a full house at the beautiful Sage - had a great night, band were superb particularly the new young drummer - megga and super tight playing to click (barring the last few songs where his cans came off and they really let rip) and the rest of the band were bang on. Jumping with a crowd that appeared to stun the band with the reception they got throughout the night, and a nice touch taking the time to shake hands with everyone they could down the front when they came on, and then again at the end for a good five minutes - 30 years in the business and still savvy enough to remember who put them there in their heyday and beyond, easy enough to do, but a trick missed by many Mind you - the alternative thread on here is proving almost as entertaining Perhaps Mark King will be sitting in his big house counting his cash, surrounded by all his top guitars and gear wondering how he can appease all the hatred for him, his playing style, and his awful tone according to some Basschat members... ....or maybe not

Leaving the house in 15 mins to meet my mates for a curry and beers, then on to the magnificent Sage to see Level 42. Fortunate to get seats very close to the front, long time since I last saw Mark King - Billingham Forum ages ago - looking forward to it. Anyone going?
