The Official Warwick Club (Part 4)

Not open for further replies.
I'm just curious here, but does anyone actually have a Buzzard, or did they only ever make one for Entwistle? 'Cus despite Warwick's massive following, I'm yet to come across one (or a Stryker for that matter). I know they're fairly limited, but still, someone, somewhere, must be gigging/jamming with one...

Actually, i saw one on eBay yesterday...it's a 1990s Buzzard with his sig on the truss cover or something to that effect.

i can't get there from my work pc, or i'd give you the link. do a search on ebay, tho...
 
I recently bought a Corvette standard 5. It's my second one. I had one and sold it because I thought I needed a pricey Rickenbacker c64. Then I realized the Corvette had the better sound for almost everything I do.. So I finally picked one off eBay for about what I sold my old one for.

I'll put up some pics later, but to me it's not so much about how they look, but how they sound. It never takes me very long to get what I think is a good sound out of it.
 
has anyone seen any german fretless streamer 5strings running around for sale??

i'm heavily involved in the quest for one currently.

if you know of one, please link it in a PM.. so i can investigate it.

ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
 
My Thumb BO5. Love the sound, hate the neckdive (shoelace helps though).

I just picked this up last weekend. It's my 4th Thumb I've owned and it's thee best one. I've owned in the past an "85 Thumb and an "87 & 98" Thumb 5 NT. I'm not really bothered about the neck dive because I use a very wide strap. Here's some pics taken by Dave Pickle. I'll take some new ones later.

How's that jazzman?
Thinking Of one fir my next purchase

I love it. It has some serious throaty low end, growly mids and clear sparkly highs. So many tone options too. If my house was on fire, this is one I'd grab. It's the perfect bass for the music my band plays, overdriven quirky prog. It's funky as hell too. Honestly I couldn't be happier with my current collection basses. The only thing I have the mildest gas for is a Breedlove Atlas acoustic bass guitar. Something I can take with me traveling or on a picnic.
