Warwick thumb nt 6

[Sebek-Ra89]

Hello all this is my first post on TB after lurking for a few months and I come with a question. I am a student so my budget is extremely limited and I am looking for a fretless six string and was thinking a warwick thumb nt with a threw neck. I have been looking for days I cant find a price other than the warwick catalog which lists $7500 which I know is too much but I dont know how much I'm looking to save up so if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

Budget? Warwick NT 6 string? hmm not a match

Im not looking for one thats cheap I am just looking to see how long Ill be eating ramen, I can find fretted thumb NT's for $3000 and a $4000 price difference just seems oddly inconsistent.

Well if you don't find anything in the classifieds here you could try warwicks own forum classified section. Good luck! I owned one once, it had a very narrow string spacing, which I couldn't get completely used to. Other than that it was only the weight and balance problem to cope with. Sounded very good though. 2 soap Bartolinis.

Are you talking used or new? new Warwick fretted and fretless basses of the same model cost the same.

Bass Central has a Bolt-on fretless 6 (towards the bottom of page)
http://www.basscentral.com/warwick/thumb_bolt_on.shtml

for $3300
I'd guess about $800-$1000 more for a thru-neck?
