Warwick Thumb_Repairs

    Hi,
    I have an old Warwick Thumb bass, it needs a new nut and by the looks of it some of the frets need replacing. (They seem to have worn in the middle)

    Does anyone know of anyone that could take a look around the Meath area?

    Cheers,

    Inexplicably there are no Warwick dealers/disturbers in Ireland, or no dealers that I know of anyway. Have you contacted Warwick directly and asked for advice?

    You can buy the parts you need directly from Warwick, which I think would be the best option, then get someone here to install. It's what I did when I had my old Streamer refretted a few years ago. Gerry Haze is in Dublin and has a growing excellent reputation. Derrick Nelson is good but expensive.

    +1 for Gerry Haze. He's based in Lucan.

    Cheers,
    I spoke to Warwick directly and they can do all of the work, its just the hassle of sending to Germany to be done so was looking for someone over here.

    Thanks guys,

    I think having the job made at Warwick won't be cheap at all. Plus the bass will be shipped TWICE, not very nice on a freshly fretted bass.
    I'd have it made locally, if possible. You can buy both frets and nut on the Warwick online shop.
