FS ONLY Warwick Thumb BO4 2000 German made
 
Have my eyes on a 5 string I want so I am putting this amazing Warwick Thumb BO 4 on the fence.

I got this bass from the original owner and it made me sell my $$ corvette, I loved the corvette, but the Thumb is the big daddy for a reason. Now I am trying to get the same bass on 5 strings.

The bass is a 9 out of 10, it has a little scuff on the front where your palm rests and a mark on the underside of the neck by the 2nd fret (probably from a wall hanger).

The sound makes it an 11 out of 10, it groooowls the warwick growl.

It was made in 2000 in germany, specs as far as I know, and feel free to correct me you warwick experts:

Bubinga Body
Ovangkol Neck
Wenge fingerboard

Recently setup by my local tech, low action, perfect intonation.
It comes with an after market hard shell case in great condition.

Selling Price is $1075 shipped lower 48, will post additional pics tonight.

will post more pics later today.
Check my feedback, I would consider a thumb 5 as trade with some cash on my end.

what's the weight on this bad boy?

pablop 02-06-2013 08:44 PM

9lb according to my crappy scale, feels lighter than a stingray, heavier than my pbass.
