Are the Warwick Thumb basses made of walnut? Those things are amazing. The first time I picked one of them up, I saw this little tiny body and expected it to be a super-light bass. Imagine my surprise at how heavy it actually turned out to be! That is some kind of really dense wood they use for those.
My Peavey T-40 bass is made of a big heavy chunk of oak. Probably not the ideal wood for a bass, but it sure does have a big fat sound and endless sustain (especially when played through my cranked Ampeg rig).
