SOLD:2002 Warwick Streamer Stage 1 V (5-string) Neck thru/Aero pickups/East preamp £1200

[Mike]

Hi all,

Pains me to do it, but I'm desiring a 5 string jazz to match my 4 string FenderAmerican Deluxe Jazz, so it means this has to go to pay for it.

It's the best 5 string I've ever had - it's a 2002 Warwick Streamer Stage I. It's neckthrough, and has Aero pickups and a John East preamp. The sound is still very Warwick - woody, punchy, tight and focused. Amazing for funk, but I've been using it on functions (soul/motown/funk/pop) and jazz gigs and it's performed amazingly.

(That small black dot is a little bug from the garden by the way!)

Controls - pickup blend, master volume, bass/treble boost/cut pots, a three way switch that acts like a high pass filter (it's quite a bright sounding bass so this tames it if you want less high end). This was put in by Mike Walsh of Iceni Zoot basses.

The neck is gorgeous - very comfortable for me (with my small hands!) and quite flat. Very smooth.

Small ding on the back of the neck, general playing wear (see pics) but generally in great condition.

Looking for £1200 - maybe a trade with a Fender American Deluxe Jazz 5. These basses cost something like £4000 on Thomann (amazing!) so I think this is a good deal.

The bass doesn't come with a case (I might have a cheapy one in the loft - in fact, I might even have an old hard case there, I'll check it out) so ideally it would be pickup only, though can maybe ship at buyer's expense (and risk!).
I'm in Chelmsford, Essex (CM2 postcode) which is right on the A12 not far from J28 on M25. For some diesel money I can probably deliver depending on distance! Or even travel into London to hand it over.

Any questions shoot me a message!

Stunning! Is this a broad-neck model? What is the string spacing at the bridge?

[jimbobothy]

SS1s are broadnecked as standard IIRC

[Mike]

Yes, I believe that's the case!

[TorVic]

So I guess that means it is 20mm spacing and not 19mm.

Thanks for the interest - PMs replied. Now sold and with its new owner. Thanks.

Thank God... Can't taunt me any more...
