Ok, so the scalloped headstock is a possibility!

Could this be our first look at the back of the 2024 ltd model thumb?
First I thought it was a Corvette back but the neck joint looks different on a Corvette if I am not wrong.
I took the screen shot from this article:


What do you guys think?

I like the investigative thinking @Vanamike

Definitely a Thumb BO in that pic. Certainly odd to have them holding it backwards. It's got a signature (Nico's or HP's?...looks a bit different!) Possibly the Teambuilt '24 ltd for sure.

The image from their Instagram that @Hardy posted, is of a 4/5 Thumb NT. Those would be the Masterbuilt versions. One might conclude.

*Just dawned on me that the reason they might be holding it backwards is to show Nico's signature? Nice way to mark the change of father to son.

That is the reason of the pic. Maybe they just grabbed one of the 2024 Ltd because they signed them at this time.

Very cool. The 1st LTD's with Nico's signature.

@eyvindwa Kinda looks like Swamp Ash.

* It's bound to happen, so let me start with the criticisms..lol. I love Wenge as much as anyone, but I wish they'd introduce stringers as default again.

The front wood looks to be a darker wood, if the 4 string from the picture above is anything to go by. Or it's just shadows fucking with me.
I hope they layer it like an F.N.A, i always thought that was dope.

Ohhh love they went with all Walnut. Nod to the original Thumb BO's. Dolphin pup layout is super cool.

Still a possibility the Masterbuilt versions will have a scalloped headstock as a nod to the JD?! :p

I like ’em because they look like a player’s bass in mind, nice pup package and cool yet not overkill woods, simple and sexy.

Is it me or they have dot inlays?

Good eye Nacho... Yes indeed, simple inlays.

Good job Warwick, Nicholas! These are Thumb basses that remind us of the old days of Warwick by their dark natural wood aesthetics.
Their very flexible pickup configuration will make them tone monsters on top of that. Splendid!
