    Buying old basses

    Think I’ll need to play a few to get a better idea and keep the research going - thanks for the input

    Thumb has always been on my dream list but out of my price range. Could possibly get that fixed depending how bad it is any idea what she’d want for it and any pics?

    Thanks for the feedback, probably worth waiting for a decent MIG one to come up then. There’s a nice looking fortress one on marketplace but too far to travel and try it for me at the moment and not keen on buying a bass I haven’t played before

    Thanks - that’s really useful and something to look out for. Having looked at what’s about and hearing about different neck widths, I’m thinking of trying to find a few to play first as well as considering some of the new China made ones and not rush into buying anything yet.

    Hi

    Always wanted a Warwick thumb bass but too pricey for me at the moment
  6. Looks good! Got the 4 string version of this and been playing it for a few years now, doesn’t look as nice as yours does though.

    Thanks guys for the really useful and constructive feedback. The kit I bought SH in the 90’s I still play, doesn’t feel old, until I have to carry my TE amp and cab about but knowing I’ve had it 30years and looking at the gig scars from youthful exuberance and stupidity I know it’s old. Sounds like it’s worth going for and factoring in a good set up/check over/strings etc

    You’ve clearly not seen some of the cars I’ve bought🤣

    Buying old basses

    Thanks, unfortunately it’s too far away to go and play it but doesn’t look too bad in the pictures from what I can tell. I was told they had chunky necks but the ones I’ve seen seem to have thin necks which are closer to the Ibanez I’ve been playing for the last few years - something to check👍 More research before pulling the trigger I guess
  10. Hi, Always fancied a Warwick bass and from everything I’ve looked up the German made ones are really good but as they’ll be around 30 years old, should I be concerned about fret and fretboard wear as the purchase price will be top of my budget so paying someone to sort anything out on it will be out of the question? Any advice appreciated Nos
