nige1968 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Turns out I really need £350, and how is this German-built five-string two-pickup bass not worth such a paltry amount? Rhetorical question, btw. Anyway, AYMBA, before the Rockbass thing, Warwick produced these entry-level passive Streamers in Germany. This one is the 5-string, 2-pickup model, built in September 2000. The body is carolena (pine, apparently) and the neck is ovangkol. Natural oil finish and one-piece bridge. Sounds very nice too, though the output seems a bit quieter than most basses -- I understand that's down to the pots used on this model, but haven't got around to replacing them. Proper solid chunky wood, hence 4.2kg / 9.26lb. Comes in a Warwick gig bag ('proudly made with RokTex©'). Some wear and tear to the body if you look closely. Strung low E to high C. Sensible offers entertained. Sorry, no overseas postage. Not keen to post at all, in fact, but might be persuadable within the UK. OK, £275 anyone? Pretty much what you'd pay for a cheapo Rockbass, only you get a proper German one to show off to your mates and feel all growed up.

Jakester Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I sold mine for much more than this. It’s a bargain. You could buy this and fit a decent preamp for less than a new Squier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 If it was a 4 I’d be on it like a tramp on chips. Loved these back in the day. Had the A4 picture ad from Bassist mag on my wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
