  1. Hi there. I play a Warwick Thumb Bass NT, upon which there is evidence of some shrinkage between the bubinga and ovankol woods of the neck-through-body construction. I've owned the bass since 2006, this was the case when I bought it and it hasn't worsened any since then. The shrinkage is minimal. It can only just be felt so it's not big deal. I was wondering though, in the interests of being fussy ... If I was to attempt to remedy the situation and sand this smooth, how best would I regain the finish that is natural to a thumb bass? Has anyone else had this problem and attemted to sort it? Thanks E

  7. Has anyone here ever had a luthier change a fingerboard on their bass? If so, who did you get to perform the voodoo? Were you pleased with the results? How much did it cost you? I'm considering changing the fretted wenge plank on my thumb bass for a fretless ebony number ... that said, how do you think that a lined wenge board would cope/ feel ... it's pretty grainy. just tossing around ideas really. I might just buy a fretless. Any input would be appreciated.

  11. Streamer STD ([b]S[/b]exually [b]T[/b]ransmited [b]D[/b]isease?!!!) Only jestin'! I used to have one of these (the bass, not the disease!) In my humble opinion this bass had a kinda P-bass feel. Moreso than what people generally perceive of a Warwick. The pickup placement, the flat slab-like body, where in sits when playing, the simple bridge, the passive electronics, and with the same simple controls. The neck is all Warwick though. It's like a strange hybrid. A really great bass for all that. £190 is an excellent price. Somebody buy it. You'll have an interesting bass.

  14. Could anyone advise me as to the value of a Peavey 15" Black Widow speaker (in top condition) ? Advice appreciated
  15. It's boxed, taped up, and ready to send ... Takers, please! Come get yourself some warped bass tweekage!!! Oh, did I say bump?
  16. I love this bass. Gorgeous!!! it deserves a bump. If I wasn't about to move overseas, I'd buy it, to be sure. I've got a bubinga thumb already, but that would be getting turned into a fretless. I've fancied a blonde for some time. What a sweet pair that would make!!!
