I've never cared much for the Thumb Bass body design, but this bass is a beauty! Between the Buginga wings, fretless-unlined fingerboard, and the Wenge stringers in the neck-thru, this is one nice looking bass; one I'd gladly walk on stage with!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-WARWICK-TH ... 4d00108080 I have three fretless basses in my arsenal; a mid1990's Warwick Thumb NT5, a mid 1980's Zola fender clone and an early 1980's Wal pro. The Warwick always get the call. We all know the negatives - weight, neck dive etc but this bass makes the music directors go wild - the sound is worth the pain! No affiliation with the owner - just trolling for lefties tonight & thought of y'all. |

Thanks FOM and fivebass52..... SHOCKED it took this long for you guys to mention this Thumb bass. Well, that bass and listing is yours truly.... "Mine". I don't post my own gear here. just leave it to you guys to find. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me offline. Its a rare breed and a piece of Warwick history. AND, its not that bad in the neck heavy department. Its more body heavy... Cheers! |

My only regret at this point is not having an unlimited supply of GAS money when a beauty such as this comes up for sale!
