OutToPlayJazz Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) I'm buying another Streamline (with LED's) so I can't really see the point in having two identical basses around... I bought this from Vern a couple of months ago & it's a revelation - The sound is astounding & the balance/playability is superb. I think this is one of the early 2008 models, maybe the 6th made if the serial number is anything to go by. Condition is excellent with no chips or serious scratches & the bass is currently strung with 30-90 hotwires. If you're not familiar with the Streamline model, just think on the terms of "little bass, big attitude!" I'll be looking for £1000 for this amazing instrument, although interesting trade offers will be considered as well Apologies for the re-use of Vern's pics Edited March 26, 2009 by OutToPlayJazz
josh3184 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 why do i look when its obviously not going to be left handed?
martthebass Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Having had a brief plonk on this beast yesterday I can fully confirm how truly awesome it is. If I wasn't such an 'average' bassist and could stop hitting all the wrong notes just because it doesn't have a head this bass would have been emigrating to the socialist republic of South Yorkshire as we speak.

dmz Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Don't sell it - take it to Rob G - and get it made fretless !
OutToPlayJazz Posted March 25, 2009 Author Posted March 25, 2009 Fretless?? Nah, I have double basses for that job!

MB1 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 MB1. Does it come with a case?...I can imagine it would get lost in a normal case!
OutToPlayJazz Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 Hey Martin, yes it has a purpose made Ritter gigbag. They all come with those. The bass actually fits into the hiscox lifelite cases really well, though. Couple of foam inserts and you'd be there.

molan Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 This really is a very funky little bass, the case is just tiny too. So easy to cart around
Guest Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Moving house this weekend will have some money left over.....easy to hide.......Unlike my incoming Trace V4 combo..hmmmmm,

elom Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Oh this is so nice, and I haven't even heard it! Still saving hard for my custom so no chance of buying it but someones going to enjoy this.
steve Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 I think these look ace, if it had a couple more strings, and my cash wasn't spoken for, I'd have snatched your hand off!
Macko1968 Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Seriously guys, this is the best bass Rob Green has built IMHO.

steve-soar Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 What does it sound like compared to an S2 Classic neck through?
OutToPlayJazz Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 Well, as far as I can tell, this bass is now sold! Thanks for all the interest, guys. Rich.
