    Let's hope that WoT and this guy never get together in the same room!

    [quote name='fernandobicho' timestamp='1335779247' post='1635726'] Great price for an early Streamer 1... old preamp but MEC PUs and old truss road cover...maybe ealry 90's. [/quote] +1 on early 90's 2 band EQ, No dots (stopped around 1990) on fingerboard, no neck volute (came in mid 90's), they also started using a lot of well flamed maple around the early/mid 90's. Regards weight - the weight can vary by as much as 2lb; I've had Streamer Stage I's from this era as light as just over 8lb and I had one through my hands that was just over 10lb. Nice bass mind and if it were a light one then I'd have been interested.

    Crikey Moses! Those pups look a bit mad mind! Not heard of those before.

    Just a bit cheeky listing this and saying you'll put a price when you have time to think about it. I'd have suggested you could have listed it 'after' you considered the price but it'll be the Mods decision if you're fishing for offers or simply new to the game! Nice preamp mind.

    There is still the offer on ebay of brand new Marshall 8x10's available for £150; though I do realise that you say you are skint, you'd need to get something soon so this could make sense if you can sell your present cab and put that towards an 8x10. However... the obvious answer is educate the band to turn down!

    [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1335680031' post='1634448'] The deal is that it's not a 1969 Fender. [/quote] +1 Just because it has a serial number that dates to 69 engraved/stamped on a plate, you'd have to be wrong in the head to take that as proof!

    Do you have more of those strings Charlie?

    [quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1335594209' post='1633466'] Hmm, these sound rubbish in these videos! I'm sure I've heard them elsewhere sounding better than that. [/quote] The clip in post #7 sounds fine to me played through decent speakers! I'd be happy enough with a tone like that from an acoustic bass (even amplified)... I've heard a lot worse.

    [quote name='MarkusWarwick' timestamp='1335478268' post='1632095'] Is this still goin? [/quote] No.

    LOL must learn to type and think faster! Though KiOgon and I appear to be saying the same thing.

    If I was laying out that kind of money on a bass I'd be wanting the neck off when I arrived to collect (I'd not be paying and having the bass shipped) and I'd be going over it with a fine tooth comb... or taking a Fender 'vintage' expert with me. However on inspection of those pics and if I was to make a call based solely on those pics, I'd say that it looks pukka vintage (the back of the neck looks very clean but that's not to say it isn't genuine), though without the pot codes and dates from the neck I'd not know if it was exactly 69.

    I'd not sweat about the feedback thing. On the plus side you've given others considering dealing with the complainant a bit of an eye opener!

    [quote name='P100GSteve' timestamp='1335422517' post='1630688'] so i bought the Peterson and just have to say it's got a lovely rich jazz & blues tone. But... up against my Fender SE i prefer the bigger sound that i get from the 2x10's and have now decided to sell the wee beasty... so i'm up for some serious offers. Thanks Steve[attachment=106138:544532_10150654444108021_598658020_9238475_269928765_n.jpg][attachment=106139:548124_10150654445298021_598658020_9238485_1144294602_n.jpg][attachment=106140:562793_10150654445058021_598658020_9238483_964120045_n.jpg] [/quote] As was pointed out earlier, it was always going to struggle against newer/bigger kit but a nice looking combo. Forum etiquette is that you'll need to stick a thread up in the sales section and add a price, which shouldn't be too hard as you've just bought it.

    USA - Now showing as in transit to Louisville USA. UK - Out for delivery from Gateshead GB! UK may win yet.

    The only band I've seen on Jools for a long time that has made me sit up, take notice and actually get off my backside to see where they are playing near Newcastle... Nowhere! LOL

    USA - Now no longer awaiting final clearance in the USA but in fact... 26/04/2012 03:46 EAST MIDLANDS AIRPOR, GB DEPARTURE SCAN UK - Last update... 26/04/2012 04:00 GATESHEAD, GB ARRIVAL SCAN Not sure what happened with USA but I have a feeling that the tracking was referring to 'awaiting final clearance' for the documentation of export rather than the bass!
  17. warwickhunt
    I wondered about the timings to the USA but my take was that the time at destination (bearing in mind I quoted the time given on the tracking rather than the time I looked online, which was 21:30) could be USA time. Hence you could add on the time difference between UK and USA to establish the actual time taken between collection and arrival at USA depot.

    Two parcels booked within 10 minutes of each other (both through Interparcel / UPS) on Tuesday evening. One going from the South of the UK to the North of the UK (we'll call it the UK parcel); the other going UK to USA (... the USA parcel). The UK parcel was collected this morning and the parcel tracking as of 21:30 tonight shows it... a few miles from where it was collected in the South. The USA parcel was collected this morning and as of 14:30 this afternoon (the same day that it was collected) was shown as... awaiting final clearance 100 miles from it's ultimate destination in the USA! All hail the UK delivery service and who'd like to start placing bets on which one gets delivered first?

    I'd possibly look at putting you question in another section of the forum Colin as the 'sales' section is technically just that; items that are for sale. It could be viewed that you were inviting offers on the instrument which is against forum rules and opens up the doors on this part of the forum for much speculation and pulling apart of your instrument... which again is frowned upon.
  20. warwickhunt
    I'll take them if they are new and sealed (you say 'absolutely [u]as[/u] new' so wasn't sure if that meant not actually new).
  21. warwickhunt
    Love the sticker on the back saying not to stack more than 3 of these units high!
  22. warwickhunt
    [quote name='Fionn' timestamp='1334945041' post='1623987'] Somebody please buy this amazing bass at a ridiculously good price so that it can torment me no longer bump. [/quote] OK... Done!
  23. warwickhunt
    Not sure it's the correct place to stick this up!
  24. warwickhunt
    Been trying to get my head around how it (the G&L) could have only 2 controls that weren't dual concentric... then looked on the site to find that it is two volumes, no tone; cool!

    [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1334862617' post='1622650'] Yes they do, but they're missing the point. If this bass was on eBay listed as it is we'd be all over it without complaint. However, the seller spends 60 seconds or so registering here and all of a sudden, despite obvious deviations from the stated description, in many peoples' eyes we can no longer comment. One of the more useful aspects of this forum when I first joined (and one of the reasons I stayed), were the comments on basses for sale, positive and negative. [/quote] +1
