Warwick streamer STII 1984/85 bass for sale £1500

[Hurricaneozka]

Hi all

I've got for sale a Warwick streamer STII bass built 1984/5 one of the first hundred or so built, no serial number and no W on headstock, rare example and a beautiful bass.

Purchased from Bass direct in Warwick, they told me it was a very early example as there was no W on headstock, no serial number and the angle of the tuners are straight rather than the later ones which are inclined, they also said it was returned to Warwick and was refurbished hence the brass frets, it a collectable bass, it's hard to believe it's age as the condition is just exceptional, you can google all its history but you enthusiasts won't need to! I bought it as it's an absolutely beautiful instrument.

Through body, action is low and fast, adjustable nut, the range of tone and playability is amazing.

Comes with gig bag (not the best) but never been played outside my house so never needed to use it!


If anyone's interested get in touch

Beautiful!

Just FYI, this bass is a Steamer bass, SSI and SSII did not come in until much later

Nice bass but it's a Streamer not a SSII which is a similar shape but very different bass. Aside from a refret and new nut is the rest of the hardware replacement?
