I bought my 1998 neck-thru Thumb 4 about a year ago because I was down in the dumps and needed something new in my life. This thing has given me a new reason to get out of bed in the morning! (Yes, I do have a job) It is begining to get a nice broken in feeling and I would swear that it sounds and feels better every day. I wax it about twice a month. Yes, it is very heavy and it does neck dive but for some reason these quirks just seem to add to its personnality. The other night I got to play it through a big Hartke rig and it just blew everyone away. If anyone wants to talk about Warwick basses, just e-mail me ! Dr. Funk
Dr. Funk, Check this out and I think you'll find the kind of conversation your looking for. http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/warwickbassguitars I participate in the Alembic Club on Yahoo. Lot's of good discussion. Thinking about starting up a Hanewinckel Club there. Have fun!!! Peace, James
