Thats a nice bass man. What kind of strings are you using?

 

[Adrian Ciuplea]

the ones in the photo are Warwick Black Label, but now I'm playing with EMP and I like them very much. I also ordered a set of RITTER to see how they are.

Elixir also sound good on THUMB hmm, I wonder about DR

 

[mwgrient]

The coated strings are my favorite too. I like long lasting stuff
I was asking about your strings because of the B string looks quit heavy (130?) but is not thundering around on tour reccord/myspace music, which is nice to listen to by the way. I have bought a 5 string Warwick Thumb from Ebay, a couples days ago, it's in this shape:
Anyway, again a verry nice bass to watch at!

it has a lovely Whahhh to it. too bad is a 2 band eq but to tell you the truth when I upgraded the 2 band MEC for a 3 band MEC on my Thumb BO did not make that much difference and loved the 2 band better on that bass. I still use my amp for most of my settings. so i am if freaking LOOOOVE

if this was a 5er... i would be in heaven. Been thinking about making it BEAD...

I realise i may be blaspheming here, but does anyone think the thumb would look good with a headless design?

This was the original intention for the Thumb design.

thank God it did not go through

It would require a fairly major change to the body design..
maybe something like this...
