NBD - Warwick Streamer Stage 2 Masterbuilt

[Veils]

I found this beauty on eBay a while back, being sold by a fella in Japan. It’s a 2022 masterbuilt, but it had just been sat doing nothing and never bought or owned by anyone. I wasn’t in the market for a new bass (I am picking up a new Shuker any day now), but the opportunity to get this at about 40% of the list price (yes, Warwick list prices are silly) couldn’t be ignored. 

 

I have owned other Warwick basses and other high end basses, but this is something else. My iphone pictures won’t do it justice. It feels stunning, the neck is silky and plays like butter and it’s so beautiful to look at. Hope you all like it!

It’s arrived! Looks great Jamie 👍

It had been sat in a parcelforce depot for some time. They didn’t bother to contact me to say it was there, had I left it another few days it would have been sent back to Japan! 
 

Hope you’re keeping well mate

That is magnificent!
I've well and truly gone way down the custom rabbit hole to be all that interested in a lot of other basses these days, but I will always have a thing for Warwicks, and that is a super fine example, congratulations!

(also very much looking forward to seeing this new Shuker of yours when it lands!)

 

Cheers,

Eude

Stunning bass that. A custom Warwick is on my wish-list, love the red finish.

Wow that's beautiful. Play it in good health. I have a Stage 1 Broadneck 5 that I'm in love with so can really appreciate this stunner 😊

Thanks chaps! I was always super sceptical about Warwick masterbuilt just because of the ridiculous prices. I think the list on this is somewhere north of €8000, which I wouldn’t pay in a million years. I can most definitely vouch for the quality though, this thing feels incredible, it has that beautiful resonance when it’s not plugged in and it’s a real looker.

 

Will definitely post the Shuker when it arrives. I’m off to visit my mum in Edale soon, that will be my time to pick up from Jon.

Is it a decent weight?

Probably only 32.8 KG!

Man I hope you meant 3.28kg. If not you've found the world's heaviest bass 🤣

[Terry M.]

But seriously under 8Ibs (3.28kg) is really good 👍

I can pop it on the bathroom scales. Not sure how accurate they are though, they keep telling me I’m getting heavier.

Congrats!  The Masterbuilt Warwicks are truly different instruments to the ones that came before, they feel like incredibly premium instruments.
