2x New Warwick Week!

In the last 5 days, I've received two new (to me) Warwick Streamers! :hyper::hyper::hyper: A '97 Pro M and an '08 Stage II (my all time dream bass!!). Needless to say, I'm just a little ecstatic and loving life right now. After buying, selling, and trading a wide number of basses, I always find myself coming back to Warwicks, so I ended up selling all my other basses (save for one which I traded for the Pro M), and decided to go all Warwick. They may not be to everyone's taste, but they offer the exact sound, comfort, and playability I want in a bass, so why try to make something else fit? I'd love to say I'm done with GAS, but I know that will never be the case...cause I still need a nice 5-stringer to add. But at least for the foreseeable future, I'm set with all I need and could want right now. Now I just need to get a nice amp rig to go with them...then start saving for a ring for my ever loving and patient (and supportive...she's just as excited about these basses as I am!) girlfriend!

PICS!

Yup, that's a wenge neck!

And just for comparison between a Stage II neck-thru and a Pro M (and LX) bolt-on body thickness

A five string jazzman would cap it off nicely, but they are so hard to find (and when I do find them, I don't have the funds). the stage ii is definitely making me feel very content though, especially with the drop tuner. I can play most everything i want without any issue.
 
I recently got my first Warwick (2004 FNA Jazzman 5) and LOVE it. Good thing for you neither of those is a five-string. I have a lot of family in and around Wilkes-Barre and might have been tempted to ... um .... "borrow" one from you next time I was up there. ;) :D


Really nice looking basses. Congrats!
