Nice sparkle-black 90´s Thumb NT5 in Barcelona... kinda high price, though.

Yeah, a bit pricy. Cool promo Thumb though. Hadn't ever seen that one. I like the hand written Warwick under gloss.

Too bad we don't get to see the entire back. I've never understood sellers only putting up a few not so great pics, when trying to sell something for thousands. I always assume they're trying to hide something.
 
That blonde 6 string thumb went from a guy in the U.K to bass direct, now to Spain ? Within about 2 months

I wrote to the spanish seller and told me he got it from a trade. According to him, the bass is like new, mint.

Yeah it's that same one posted a few months back. Someone love the Bleached Blonde enough to order their own.

It's a good idea. One day, I'd like to order a Rev 1 JD Thumb from the CS.
 
Yeah I think that's the same CS Thumb. It had a small hole in the back of the headstock where someone tapped it to put a new strap position. Looks like the person filled that hole. I tried to do s trade for that bass when it was in the U.K., and the guy just stopped communicating.
 
Kinda my exact taste in wicks... 6 string CS with matching HS.. might offer some trade bait...
 
I know you guys are gonna hate me for this, it's a beautiful bass but most probably totally unplayable unless seated. Thumb BO, six strings, broadneck. Imagine the neck dive on this thing.

Nothing a good strap can't fix

No, just thinking you are getting "too old for this heavy shit" ;)

I'd guess that bass is much lighter than your typical Thumb BO6 due to the woods used. I remember being blown away at how light my Bleached Blonde 5er was

Hate you for posting a Thumb? Jester...Come now. The Thumb IS Warwick. All love baby.

Sometimes one has to sacrifice perfect balance, for perfect sound and looks. :D
 
Is someone looking to trade for a 5 string $$? It shows on my Tapatalk feed, but I can't find it in this thread when I tap on it.
