WARWICK THUMB BOLT-ON...quick question

[Lonesomedave]

i was talking in another thread the other day, and this got me curious.

my son has the use of a Warwick Thumb bolt-on bass from my friend Dan.

the serial number is: J-0953B4-02 as found on the back of the headstock

does this mean the bass was made in 2002?

thanks,

The last two numbers are indeed the year it was made.

JP;

tried, but the site is f**ked up. can't get it to respond to my attempts to scroll down.

anyway, i was told the first or last 2 numbers of every serial number were the year... the guy didn't remember which. in this case 02. is that not true and does that not mean 2002?

If you are accessing the site from a iPhone/iPad/other such device use two fingers to scroll instead on one, I had that issue till i figured it out

The W serial works like this: MONTH (the letter) - FACTORY MODEL NUMBER - YEAR (the last 2 digits). The bass in question was made in October 2002.

Wow, I didn't know this. Cool to discover my 6 fretless thumb bolt-on is from may 1994. Thanks!
