Floyd Pepper Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Hi, After having withdrawn this, I'm now testing the water again for anybody who is after a great Warwick bass for £[s]875[/s] - £800. Cheers, Jim Hi, As per my other post, I'm moving on the non-players and saving the money for a rainy day (or a vintage jazz rainy day) and after a lot of thought, I've decided to sell my 1991 Warwick Streamer Stage 1. It really is a very good bass and for a bass celebrating it's 20 years birthday, it's in good condition with no major dings. There are some marks to the body (see photo) and it does show signs of use which is to be expected. Since I puchased it about a year ago, I have waxed it on several occassions and I will include the remainder of the wax with the bass. It comes with a very low action and a Warwick Rockbag soft gigbag.

warwickhunt Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I've never played this bass nor do I personally have any affiliation with FP but I've yet to find a Streamer of this era that is a duffer! The woods IMHO are still of the best quality; the maple for the bodies on these basses [despite the minor dings], is tight and resonant and though I may prefer the woodiness of the Wenge necked basses, there is no other Warwick that gives the tone of these predominantly maple basses. Oh and the wax will last you 20 years... I made one tin last me that long and I used it on a LOT of Warwick basses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sshorepunk Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 old stage 1's possibly the finest warwick money can buy! Even the newer ones are good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocco Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I had a stage 1 fiver that was awesome apart from the fact it was a fiver, quite an expensive way to find out I don't like fivers, bump for the bass I should have bought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Stunning One thing though, is it the lighting or is left maple body wing darker than the right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisnameistaken Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 If anyone's got the money and is anywhere near, they should go try this bass. These older Warwicks are super slick basses and have a real idiosyncratic sound to them that really stands out in a mix with guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
