The official WARWICK club thread!

Even my wife calls this one my girlfriend. A 1991 German Streamer Stage I 6 string that I purchased in 1993.

She's got a neck like a surfboard, but if you strap high enough she plays like a dream.I just used her again this last weekend for a gig and I still love playing her.

I've had this 95 NT Thumb 5 string for about 8 years:

I like it a lot, but these days I'm digging my Jazz bass more.

She's subtley different. She prefers chrome hardware to Daywalker's black goth streak
I need better pictures so badly.

Thumb - 5(Tom)

You named your Thumb after me? I'm flattered.

Great basses, by the way. I've always appreciated Warwicks.

Hey, Sexy thumb's there Ian!

Hey thanks bro!

Is that Corvette new for you?

 

[capnsandwich]

me with my baby. its the only pic with my warwick corvette 4 thus far. this bass is by far the best feeling bass i've ever owned. a little heavy but nothing too overbearing. i love it even if it did put me back $1200.

[Pako]

Hey thanks bro!

Is that Corvette new for you?

Not at all...bought it new about 3 years ago. I was currently in the market for an Upright Bass but fell in love with this bass. It was my first Wick experience.

 

[bad_andy]

now that's nice!! ^^^

Thanks! Streamers are wonderful basses.

That is an amazing Wick!!! When/if you want to unload it, PLEASE PM me!!

What a great compliment! Thanks. Your Streamer II is gorgeous as well. As for unloading mine... If/when hell freezes over, you'll be the first to know.

I guess I am a new member here, just got a Thumb bolt on and learning to play it. I got it on Craig's list where I also got GK 400 rb and GK 15" cab sounds sweet.

Is mine Bubinga or ovankel wood and what is the difference?

I will try to post pic later but if anyone knows please let me know.

Thanks.

 

[pretaanluxis]

Is mine Bubinga or ovankel wood and what is the difference?

Most thumbs are Bubinga. Bubinga is a bit woodier sounding, Ovankel a little thumpier with a hint of a bark...it's really hard to explain

 

[jady]

Bubinga is usually used for the body and Ovankol is used for the neck.

 

[Rick_no7]

He's got a Bolt on, which means that unless its early 90's, its probably Ovangkol. I want a bolt-on bubinga bodied thumb very badly. One day I will own one.

Pre-90's there were many made out of Walnut.
