This puppy is heading my way as we speak! Should have it by Thursday. Man I've been on the bass merry-go-round lately but I think it may have stopped. Full review to follow:
Is that one of the American made Spectors? I ordered their catalogue and they had the "Black and Blue" bass and it looked phenomenal. Nice bass man, congrats!
I think it's a Warwick Streamer. They look a lot like Spectors. The bridge looks ike a Warwick, and the pickups look like they're MECs. Also, the frets look like brass and the fb looks like wenge. But, as always, I could be wrong (usually when I say that, I am ). By the way, what's that neck laminate that's not maple (or is it also maple?)? I bet that's a bright bass!
It's a Warwick Streamer Stage 1. The stringers are supposed to be Wenge but they look like Ovankol to me.
What I meant was: what is the outermost neck laminate? ?/wenge/maple/wenge/maple/wenge/? Is the ? also maple?
yeah, that guy was selling those last few warwicks he had for great deals. is the lx still around? good looking streamer, man
I've had a few Warwicks (Thumb 4 bolt-0n, Fortress, Stage II and LX) but the spacing was always little tight which is why I'm pumped up because the Stage I has 20mm spacing. Slap-O-Rama
Hey Neptoon, Yes, I still have a couple of Warwicks Left("LX"5, Infinity SN 4, & a Modulus Q4) If interested let me know GrooveGuru: I glad things worked out between us. I know you will be very pleased with the Stage I. It is a great playing bass. The spec's on the bass are.... - Flamed Maple neck-through body - Wenge Fingerboard - Wenge/Bubinga Neck Laminates - Active 3 way MEC electronics - Natural Oil Finish Thanks again for a very easy transaction.
Good going Groove! I love Warwick basses too and would love a Streamer Stage II in a 5-string but, since I already had a custom shop Thumb 5 BO, I know I can't play with the tight string spacing either. That is what almost got me to buy a Streamer I in a five. Let me know sound-wise how you like it compared to your other Warwicks you had. It looks like a nice bass, you don't see very consistant Flame like yours on many Warwick basses. By the way, did you sell your Roscoe LG 3000 yet? http://community.webshots.com/user/pistoleroace
Shawn: Part of the Stage I deal seeing as I couldn't get a Afzelia Roscoe LG3005 How's your sale going?
That's awesome. Nice flame. They seem to save the best pieces for the natural finish models. My stage 1 is the only bass I regret selling and there have been a few!
hey, i didn't know that was you! i contacted you once or twice concerning the ssI a couple months ago when you first decided to close the doors. i wish i coulda come up with something to get that thing in the old rehearsal space...i'm glad to see a talkbasser gettin' it, though hooyah
Groove, I had three people who were somewhat serious contact me from last night to this morning about it. One of them is supposed to be mailing me a cashiers check tomorrow. I was really hoping that my Warwick Thumb 4 NT would have sold first so I wouldn't have had to sell the Roscoe. I know I will be kicking myself in the pants for this one. At least I still am able to keep the other Roscoe. The F Bass I just got is a killer. It has everything I was looking for in one bass like comfort, multiple tone variations and COMFORT! I took it to rehearsal the day I got it and played it for three hours without any straining or cramping up. I am in serious love. Shawn http://community.webshots.com/user/pistoleroace
