  1. [quote name='FunkyFresh' timestamp='1437117703' post='2823646'] Wow, beautiful. GLWTS. You might want to update the title though to 34 of 75 (not 36) or am I missing something? :-) [/quote] Whoops! Edited
  2. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1437117147' post='2823638'] (oh and do you have a photo of the inside of the control cavity? Randomly as I want to compare the "1984" replica electronics with what's in my 1985 thumb [/quote] Il try and sort a picture when I get chance
  3. I shouldn't have bought another four string, so I think I am going to need to move this on to make way for a fiver. This is a superb bass and truly represents the era wonderfully. For those who do not know, the bass body and neck is a replica of an eighties Warwick Streamer, so super thin and light, with EMG pickups and the original vintage wired MEC 2 band circuit. The Cherry Wood has been stored since the eighties and is simply stunning. It even has Abalone fret markers. This only differs from the original as it has the two piece bridge, upgraded Just a Nut III brass and black hardware. Otherwise, its the same with the modern upgrades of IFT and glow in the dark side markers. These new Warwick basses are the mutts, and this bass quite frankly blows the 6 or so vintage Streamers I have had out of the water for quality and feel. Only 75 of these basses exist, I doubt you will see another for some time (this was sold on here not so long ago, I personally haven't seen another on the 2nd hand market). Bass is in mint condition with just a couple of very difficult to photograph marks. Comes with the full Warwick flightcase (weighs a TON) and complete user kit with certificate. [s]Trades with cash adjustments as appropriate for five strings, think Warwick, Dingwall and other similar instruments with aggression in the mids.[/s] These were very expensive when released in 2012, believe around the £5,000 mark, however I need a quick ish sale to buy what I want so willing to offer it for just £1799 Shipped in the UK. Add maybe 50 Euro for shipping to Europe Specs: [b] Warwick Streamer LTD 2012 Warwick 30th Anniversary Bass Specs:[/b][list] [*]Construction: Neck Through [*]Only available as right-handed fretted 4-string version [*]Scale: 34˝ [*]Frets: 24 [*]Fingerboard: Wenge [*]Position Markers: Abalone Dots [*]Neck: Wenge Flat Neck with 3 mm Cherry stripes [*]Body: Cherry (25 years old) [*]Finish: Natural Oil [*]Pickups: Active EMG P/J [*]Electronics: Original 2-band MEC replica electronic from 1984 [*]Tuners: Warwick machine Heads [*]Bridge: Warwick 2-pieces Bridge [*]Other hardware: Warwick Security Locks [*]Weight: 3,8 kg (rounded) [*]Limited to 75 pieces worldwide [*]Includes Warwick User Kit [*]Includes RockCase Flight-Case RC 10830 B W [*]Includes individually issued certificate of authenticity [/list] Selling this purely due to a lack of a B string, and I know it just won't get played when I get a fiver. I will try to keep if I can!
  4. [quote name='cricriii' timestamp='1436941720' post='2822152'] Bump ! I really wanna try a ss2 5 strings, so if you have one and want a trade [/quote] You'll have the same issues you have with this, same neck profile. Best look for an old one, or a post 2009 one for a thinner neck, however the spacing is the same on all but the Broadneck models. Stunning bass, by the way. Excellent bubinga!
  5. I'm thinking of the new MXR, the idea of running that into a B7K excites me
  6. DHA build good stuff. For me, though, the number of valve emulator pedals and the increasing quality of these puts rear valve pedals with large footprints and tricky power requirements on the back foot for me.
  7. Never heard of it in truth. Not much of a hit if it doesn't work out? Spend a little more and get the Warwick ust a Nut I version (which this appears to be emulating). Of course, this will probably be no good for you if you need a 40mm nut!
  8. It was never the intention, but despite my efforts to justify it, having two is just overkill. I may change my mind again by this evening, however...
  9. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1436117696' post='2815121'] [url="http://s420.photobucket.com/user/spongebob_sqaurepants/media/86FC6B9D-C873-4C95-9A7F-4C37CBCF8B6B_zps9qn9cxja.jpg.html"][/url] Latest board for church [/quote] You let that beast in church?!
  10. You know what it is. Mint as new condition with a bit of velcro on the bottom, happy to remove. This is the latest Finnish version, purchased new by me from Bass Direct earlier this year for £275 (may be able to dig out the receipt), made from a stunning one piece aluminium block. Has the attack cut option, which makes this pedal so much more useable as a preamp [s]£245[/s] £235 shipped in original box. Stock pic, will provide a real picture on request but really is no different!
  11. [quote name='danny-79' timestamp='1436015392' post='2814342'] That's not bad either ! and nearly half the price of the B3K Still undecided [/quote] All depends on what sound you want. The Cog sounds 0% like the Darkglass...
  12. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1435952927' post='2814009'] Okay. I think I gets this pedal now. I thought it was a distortion with an Eq. It's SOOOOOOOOOOO much more than that. And looks cool to boot It's a great preamp. It interacts well with my other sounds and actually enhances them. Using it in anger at rehearsal tomorrow. [/quote]
  13. [quote name='The Badderer' timestamp='1435887749' post='2813378'] that was the least sexy shot of the build so far.... unless you like Metal clamps, in which case you're in boner inducing clamp territory! [/quote] This any better? [attachment=195643:11058562_10155709728045405_2115648685457363903_n.jpg]
  14. Fingerboard and neck being glued up.... [attachment=195527:11667962_10155706033015405_1544610083_n.jpg]
  15. I didn't think the MXR was out yet, but it has 3 votes??
  16. It's that like the exact same garden table as mine as well? Haha!
