    There was a Status Graphite Groove bass in the classifieds not so long ago, not sure if it is still available? That would be a great choice for the money.

    I love the headless,apart from the headless bit.

    Dreaming at that Buy it Now price, certainly an interesting bass though.

    It looks like it! Mark seems to be advertising them as brand new/unplayed, can't see any other way he could have gotten hold of them?

    Worth a go? Entered

    Unless you are set on buying new, i would keep an eye out for the old US SUB basses. My first 'proper' bass and i really enjoyed it, great instruments But saying that, heard good things about the new ones too.

    Pretty looking thing

    [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Just quoting the words of Mike Beigel [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Don't necessarily agree! Edited first post for clarity [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]As someone has said, i reckon the 3Leaf Proton has the vibe in modern form. [/font][/color]

    I thought the Kanye West track was truly terrible. I don't like hip hop at the best of times, but musically for me it was just such a bad mix full of terribly unmusical ideas. I can only give the man the benefit of the doubt and assume the studio version sounds much better.

    Can only echo other comments, as long as communication is clear with the buyer then there should be no problems. I have had all positive experiences in that regard, most recently i had to keep a buyer waiting over a week before i was able to post a speaker cabinet to him. However, made this clear at the start and he was perfectly fine with it I am, however, extremely impatient myself at times and I would be, probably silently, annoyed if a seller agreed to post on a day but didn't post until a couple of days later without letting me know

    £675 Collected £800 trade value. Can't see one for sale new for less than £1150 and that wouldn't come with the quality fitted cover so really cannot justify reducing the price. Will deliver within a ~100 mile radius for petrol.

    Are you the builder? If so, perhaps you could explain the design? Given the awfulness of the Haz labs reissue, i don't hold out much hope, [b][i]according to [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Mike Beigel [/font][/color][/i][/b]the Q-tron is the closest copy of the Mu-tron sound...

    The oxide I had (2013 build) was very high gain as I recall, as with all the IE units I have had (pretty much all). Either the circuit was revised or you have a faulty unit, ask Taylor the question, the answer would probably help your sale!

    Really good buy, this. Can't see what the likes of a Wren &Cuff TFR would have over this, the tonal options are great and it's a really nice build.
  15. Kev
    Is it this one? http://www.thomann.de/gb/warwick_alien.htm Lovely looking bass! Certainly would be the acoustic I would choose!

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1378794093' post='2204646'] I'm going to go 89-90. Purely cos if you were taking something to NAMM you would be showing off your latest basses... which wouldn't have dots on the finger board.... that's my logic anyway. [/quote] I would be really surprised if it was an eighties bass with the clip on control plate [i]and[/i] MEC pickups rather than EMG, i havn't seen a pre-1991 thumb without screws as i recall. My 1990 thumb definitely did, and i believe your 1992 Streamer definitely doesn't. With regards to the fretboard dots, i think that is a red herring, what with the block inlay at the bottom and all.

    Great muff bump

    To echo others, it should still work just fine, but i wouldn't see a benefit in doing it. Have you looked at other power solutions if you want the tidy board i.e. the various bricks? This thing worked great for me before i upgraded to a Gigrig setup [url="http://www.dawsons.co.uk/dr-tone-psu10-power-supply"]http://www.dawsons.co.uk/dr-tone-psu10-power-supply[/url]

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1378762571' post='2204517'] moved factory mid 1992 init, lots of changes... You going to go early or late 1992 ? . ....Roon don't mind us, it s all bumps! [/quote] Haha, okay, i would say this would be a NAMM piece that followed the move, so winter Namm 1992

    [quote name='roonjuice' timestamp='1378675379' post='2203208'] A quick hunt on Wikipedia (the well known fountain of all knowledge) states that phONE day where we got the 1 in the area code was 1995, so i'm would guess it is defo pre 95 at least!!! [/quote] I love trying to date basses I'm going to plump for the earlier date of my estimation, 1992.

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1378757220' post='2204395'] Yes, but good karma will reward you in the future.... [/quote] Yeah, but good Vindaloo certainly will not...
  22. Kev
    Unless they send you the money for postage [i]before[/i] you send them back, i wouldn't do it. But fair play for being honest; again i wouldn't have been But i'm a terrible person.

    Sadly Warwick are hopeless in dating their own older basses, as there reply would indicate The compartments mean it is a nineties or later bass, is the preamp 9v or 18v? I suspect 9v, and looking at the neck, i would say it was made sometime between 1992 and 1997.

    Pics? Use photo bucket.

    [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1378543918' post='2201568'] I would happily walk to Dusseldorf in flippers and carry that thing back the same way if I had £2200 [/quote] If i gave you the £2200, would you make a video diary? Beast of a setup and i certainly did not want to suggest otherwise! Out of interest, what kind of total weight are we talking?
