Non Rockbass Warwick for 600, too good to be true?

im selling my Corvette standard for 600...


i think its normal

i have seen them go for under 500

 

I bought one a couple years back for $600... Seems like a pretty standard used price.

 

Yeah, I was able to grab a Thumb for $600 a few months back.

That said, I'd look at that as a pretty nice deal...maybe not exceptional, but good enough that I'd have to go take a look at it before it got away.

 

Thumb for $600?!?! now that is a deal!

 

Hey its not like when someone lowballed me for a NT Thumb for $1000 and told me that he could fine tons of them for 1k


I ended up selling it for $1250

one of the worst mistakes of my life

 

damn i want to buy a used warwick now if they are that cheap!!!

 

Aye...was very very happy about it. It had a bit of mojo where the prior owner rested his thumb, but otherwise it needed very little TLC...a little fret cleaning, a nice coat of wax, and a few days of setting it up to where I was happy with it.

 

wow i just looked on craigslist and found one for 550..

i have only played the version with the double coil pickups.. i wonder how much different this one sounds?

im not too sure if its the same in the US but i have found that warwicks resale price has dropped considerably in the last few years.

 

DAY-UM!!! thats a great looking bass. What year if i may ask?

 

'98 with a Wenge neck.

Generally speaking, Yes...but the Thumb is an odd beast, they sound incredible, yet many people are uncomfortable with the way they play.

 

seems like a pretty normal price

while on the subject of warwick scores, i got this 2004 warwick thumb 5er for 500 bucks

 

Different, yes. More expensive, yes. Better, IMHO, no.

 

Used Warwicks have never been more affordable.

 

I scored all three of my Warwicks used and in totally mint condition, and the prices were generally pretty fair:

'95 Fortress One 5-string: $900
'96 Fortress Flashback 4-string: $550 (killer deal, IMO)
'97 Thumb BO 5-string: $1100

I got a good deal on the Flashback mainly because the guy had no idea what it was, and he hated it because "it was heavy and ugly." The other two were a little steep; however, all three basses were totally scratchless, well-maintained, and had all-wenge necks, so I saw them as good buys
