The Official Warwick Club (Part 5)

I have a 3 piece. Maybe it's because you have a 5 string?

I don't think so, Mine is a 09 and maybe the first ones had a 4 piece neck?

 

[crustychef]

My 2010 5 string rockbass $$ was a 4 piece. I bought it in January of 2010 so maybe the neck was left over from '09.

My newest Warwick. Fretless Thumb BO5. Can you say mwah? This is the most articulate and cutting fretless I've ever played. Yet it can still be thumpy if eq'd right. Just love it. It compliments my Streamer Jazzman 5 very well.

Nice Thumb!
I got a used NT 5 a few weeks ago. Incredible bass.

 

[crustychef]

Thanks! It's a few months old now and has been broken in on stage. I kind of wish it was unlined above the 12th fret.

 

[Means2nEnd]

Congrats on the gorgeous fretless I have one almost just like it with the faint maple lines and all. I am in love with mine. One of my favorite settings for it the bass slightly boosted mids up 100% and treble 100% off. Nasally mwwhhaaaahh for days..

Back in the game!!

Out of all the warwicks I've owned one of my favorite tones came out of a vampyre sn. This bass brings that same tone out without all the black metal goth theme.
Finally found a 5 string version of this bass! Has the same thick neck that I loved about my pnut2 model.
I just wish it had a streamer body...can't win it all.

That is Gorgeous! What a way to get back into the game!!!

According to bass central it sold for close to 10k

$130 is beyond a steal, if that's the real deal that is. Even if it isn't $130 seems to be a good price. But you know what they say, if it's too good to be true, it probubly is.

Edit: That bridge does not look like a Warwick bridge and the pick ups are wrong. Also where's the arm rest?!

Okay according Warwick's official pricelist it goes from around 9k-10k new. This guy is either a complete idiot or a scammer.

Guys, guys, it's not a new one. Far from it.

From the other thread:

What you've got is very interesting! This is a Framus Triumph from 1977 or 1978, made during a transitional period after the bankruptcy of the company. It appears to be all original, and although its not one of the oldest Triumph models...it is somewhat rare. In 1982 the retail price was 1690 DM! Very cool!
