Snarf Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) I have put this bass up for sale in the past, but ended up selling other bits of kit so I could keep hold of this... but, now unfortunately it really has to go Sooo... I dug out my old thread, dusted it off and gave it a new lease of life. Ish. Up for grabs is my Warwick Thumb NT 5, dating back to 2003 when I ordered it from new. I requested a different pups and pup configuration, but this is the only difference between this and the standard 5 string NT. Description of this beauty - Bubinga pomelle body, with an ovangkol neck and ebony fretboard... MEC electronics and active pick ups (two soapbars), scale length is 34", 26 frets, black hardware... For a more comprehensive list of features and specs, see here [url="http://www.warwick.de/modules/produkte/produkt.php?katID=14449&cl=EN"]http://www.warwick.de/modules/produkte/pro...14449&cl=EN[/url] The sustain is fantastic, plus the B string is one of the clearest and best sounding and feeling low B I've heard on a bass - it beats the low B on my bolt-on Thumb 6 hands down. The condition is great, although there are now a couple of slight marks on it. I've kept it waxed and always played it with care so have kept the wear on it to a minimum. I've only played it live once, it's mainly been used for rehearsals and some home recording. It comes in an indestructible Warwick hard case, along with truss rod adjusting tool, manual, certificate and a tub of wax that is still relatively fresh. THIS BASS IS NOW SOLD.

Peaty Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hello Mr Snarf I am back from my hols and the car has passed its MOT. So can I come round and give it a try. Next weekend is probably best for me although some evenings this week will be free but it would be fairly short notice as to which evenings are free.

BobTheBassist Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Am looking for one of these but haven't played the 5 string before. Would be very interested if I could try it first. Is that possible and when would be ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobTheBassist Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Sorry, posted that last while at work and didn't read the original properly. Let me rephrase; having noticed that I can come and play it when would be good. My folks live near oxford so it's easy enough for me to get down.
