Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
SP Luthier Notes: Some back seams were reglued and secured.
The Warwick Thumb 5 is a distinctive five-string bass that pairs striking exotic tonewoods with the unmistakable punch and presence Warwick instruments are known for. Its beautifully figured bubinga pommele body, finished in Natural Oil, gives it an eye-catching appearance, while the ovangkol neck and wenge fingerboard create a substantial yet comfortable playing foundation. A pair of MEC J pickups deliver a focused, articulate voice with plenty of growl, definition, and low-end authority, making this Thumb equally at home in tight, punchy grooves and more expansive musical arrangements. The 34" scale length and 24-fret layout provide plenty of room to explore, while the natural wood construction gives the instrument a character all its own. Weighing 9 lbs. 12 oz. and arriving with a gig bag, this Warwick is an inspiring companion for bassists looking to develop a sound that is unmistakably their own!
