Chris2112 Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Afternoon all, I am considering trading my Streamer at the moment. It's still my #1 bass, but nothing is forever and I do enjoy getting new toys (like the Fender Jaco Pastorius Jazz Bass I have recently been enjoying). This bass is a limited edition Streamer Stage 1 from 1990, as recently confirmed by H.P Wilfer, the boss-man of Warwick himself. It previously belonged to Warwickhunt and had been a part of his collection for some time until I traded him his old Zon back for it. The specs are as follows: Maple body and through neck, front and rear facings of birsdeye maple, Bartolini electronics, ebony fretboard, 34" scale etc etc. [IMG]http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv52/Baryonyx2112/Streamer2.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv52/Baryonyx2112/Streamer1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv52/Baryonyx2112/bass.jpg[/IMG] I am not 100% sure I would want to trade it, but if something nice is out there I may consider it. It would value it at a little over £1000, but I will entertain and respond to all serious offers to trade. I am really looking for a 5 or 6 string as a bit of a change as I've played 4 strings exclusively for a couple of years now. Chris
warwickhunt Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Didn't see that coming Chris! I'd have this back but the only 5 string I have is the Hamer and the cash I have set aside is for a fretless... hmmm!
Chris2112 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 Well John, as much as I enjoy owning great basses I am always looking for new toys, worried I'm missing out on something else out there! I am really looking for a 6 string, though as I say I would consider nice 5 strings too. I'm GAS'ing badly for a [b]Yamaha TRB[/b]...

Chris2112 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Posted July 9, 2012 Pretty, though I'm not sure Dingwall are my bag.
miracle Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Hi, a Benavente SCD 5 standard (5 strings active)? [url="http://www.benaventeguitars.com/2009benavente/singlecuts.html"]http://www.benavente...singlecuts.html[/url] (the last one) Edited July 9, 2012 by miracle
Chris2112 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Posted July 9, 2012 Now that truely is a beauty, but I don't like chrome hardware! I don't suppose you have any more pics of it, do you?
Chris2112 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Posted July 9, 2012 Just to clarify, I am looking for trades for 6 strings first and foremost though I may consider selling if something catches my eye. I will make it known on the thread if I decide to sell.
LukeFRC Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 [quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1340753892' post='1709312'] No doubt a stunning bass. My Ltd Edition 1990 Streamer continues to redefine my expections of a fretted bass. It is just superb. I have no doubt this will be similarly excellent! [/quote] and then two weeks later you just want those expectations redefined!
Chris2112 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1342045305' post='1728823'] and then two weeks later you just want those expectations redefined! [/quote] Luke, there is always room for a new toy! Never thought I'd let my ACG go but then if I hadn't I wouldn't have this amazing Jaco Pastorius bass to play with! And getting my fretless chops back together is fun, I used to play mostly fretless and then stopped for a while so it is good to be back. Col, I've tried PM'ing you back but it won't let me! Suffice to say I think I shall hang onto this for now and see how the trades come. For a week or so, at least, then I will review! I would be interested in a trade for an Alembic too, something like an Epic. I had an Epic in the past and it was awesome. I'd even consider a 4 string!
LukeFRC Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 there is always room! it does encourage the rest of us though!
Chris2112 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 If I wasn't in the middle of renovating my house/dreaming of getting another car I wouldn't dare sell this or trade it. But needs must. Particularly as I dream of owning another Epic.
Warwick_Official Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) This is simply phenominal! If I wasn't into straight 6's, I'd have it! Best of luck with the sale! Edited July 13, 2012 by Warwick_Official
Chris2112 Posted July 16, 2012 Author Posted July 16, 2012 Unless it's an Alembic Epic, probably yes...
Chris2112 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Posted July 18, 2012 I have another potential purchase on the way. Not bass related (a second car). I will sell this now, collection only from me in Newcastle Upon Tyne as I don't have a case to post it at present.
