morsefull Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Just spotted this. Seems like a crazy bargain if its what it says it is. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Warwick-Streamer-LX-4-string-bass-/170800864124?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item27c4865b7c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morsefull Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 False alarm.It's a Rockbass. The maple neck should have given it away ....... Hey ho. I hope I didn't get anyone else too excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Pretty sure that isn't a Rockbass........ Fairly sure Rockbasses have one piece maple necks and don't have the two piece bridge (apart from the new ones) Although weird the headstock isnt photographed.

Kev Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) ....now read its only a year old, so its one of the new Rockbasses. Naughty listing! Edited March 14, 2012 by Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yep, it'll be a Rockbass, and he has deliberately not shown the headstock because that would show the Rockbass logo (albeit in small letters). Someone should ask him for a photo of the headstock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwoff Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 To be completely honest its not a bad price for what it is. I played a raft of these new ones when Warwick got the first batch done and they were fantastic for the money. Only real problem is the lack of a curved body.

far0n Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Hate sh*t like this, I'd be well pissed off if I'd been suckered into that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonCello Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yeah, he knows what he's doing alright - no headstock shot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Missed the point though buddy, as nice a bass as it may be, he is advertising it as a Warwick, not a Warwick Rockbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba_the_gut Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I asked the seller and he said it is a Warwick Rockbass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 And he's now changed the listing to make this completely obvious. Respect to him for coming clean, and huge respect to you, Jabba, for getting him to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwoff Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Changed it pretty quick, maybe guitard didnt know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Fair enough, i'll let him off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba_the_gut Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I didn't actually ask him to change the listing, he did that himself and fairly quickly. So I'll give him the benefit of doubt. Be nice if everyone on there would change their listings once someone point out an 'error'!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Tis worth asking though, I chased one similar on gumtree, at similar price and picked up the streamer thats my main bass now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
