    Why is it hard to find a Warwick Thumb NT 5

    Why is it so hard to find a Warwick thumb NT5 that’s made past 2000s or 2010s, even harder to find one made around 2020. Does Warwick make a certain amount and not restock for a while? Why is it so hard to find one? I plan on buying one at the end of the year but I can’t find any. I see on...

    Warwick Thumb bass 1994, incredibly noisy MEC preamp?
