May I join the Warwick club? Here's my two Fortresses, I just picked up the Flashback about 20 minutes ago :D

It's a 1995 Fortress One 5-string and a 1996 Fortress Flashback. Good stuff!
 
Beautiful Rick!

Thanks. It's a '78 4001 in Mapleglo. It looks nice from far, but it's in rough shape right now. I just salvaged it from a local school.. so the frets are in terrible condition, the finish is cracked all over the place, and the hardware needs some serious cleaning. But, even so, she's very nice.

I know my wick isn't so pretty (that's why I call it "the fitz" .. the royal bastard) but it sounds great. Purpleheart top, mahogany back, wenge board. Beautiful sound. The pics do no justice.
 
That is a series made when the factory moved to Markneukirchen, from guitars that were lost during the move and found after. You can see the neck-trough costruction of the body (those bodies were at first Streamers NT) you can also see the curve on the back(contoured body). They cutted the necks, reshaped the bodies in brand new Corvettes. Those Streamettes are extremely rare. You can also see that the pots are placed in the same configuration like Streamer has.
