Is there an odd mark or lighter region on the fretboard? I was thinking it looked absolutely the real deal until I noticed that.

[/quote] Depending on the essence used for the fingerboard, that could well be the natural colouration, in which case there'd be no problem. I doubt that it be wear on the finish right up there. Needs clarification and better photos to be sure, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowieBass Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 That fingerboard is probably tigerstripe ebony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I could go and have a look, I suppose. I'm not affording new basses though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) Is £335 a bit high for a Rockbass Streamer Standard? Or are the newer small w ones worth that much? I've looked online, and £404 seems to be a new price. However, for one that looks much less impressive (to me anyhow) compared to the one in the ebay listing. EDIT: New evidence just in is making me think profit motive is behind the 'accidental' purchase. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Warwick-Streamer-Standard-RockBass-fretless-bass-guitar-/201457807130?hash=item2ee7d22f1a%3Ag%3Ai1oAAOSw%7EbFWMlj%7E&nma=true&si=5ii2MrthFhDe0jkLXdjuN8WEl6M%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Note that the buyer of the £132 Rockbass fretless has the same number of positive feedback as the seller of the £335 Rockbass.
