Halfords or any bicycle shop.

The important part is that you got insurance as a bolt on with Secureus; PF don't cover guitars/basses even if you pay extra for the cover.

Yep, pretty much my thoughts and why I auditioned with a burst P bass. Looking at videos from over the years GGB seems to have dabbled with other brands but keeps reverting back to a P bass (black or burst); lots of parallels with A Clayton, though GGB went on to produce his own as opposed to taking more sponsorship.

Now if @police squad were to join a Rush tribute and play a Steinberger stick bass... hmmmm!

Yep, P bass on 80% of everything I've watched; the odd J bass or something esoteric from the 80's period. I just happened to notice a Streamer bass on one live gig so I thought I'd see how it sounded in a rehearsal and it (Stage I on the P pup solo) popped the P bass on steroids tone and the rest of the band immediately said 'Play that one!'. Aesthetically, a purist INXS fan (likely also a bassist) might think a Warwick is not the 'right' bass but he dicked around with lots of other stuff (just like A Clayton really). I suppose it has to look AND sound right.

Parallels... Since joining an INXS tribute, I've been rehearsing with a P bass (used a lot by Garry GB) but after seeing an INXS promo with him playing a Warwick Streamer I decided to take mine along. The lads all unanimously agreed it actually nailed the bass tone better than the P bass (despite trying to EQ the P bass to match). As a result I may end up using a style of bass in a tribute that the bassist may only have used for one album or tour!

I have some of their little pedals and they are pretty good. This size multi-effects for £60ish is a no brainer if you want a little pedal for rehearsal/practice.

I have no science behind it but I'm broadly 20Hz higher than each of those. <edit> In fact I think I have the main outputs passed at about 70-80Hz... I'll check later.

What WoT said!

88... 1988 the best year for a Warwick Streamer (IMHO).
