Doctor J Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Picked up this heavily played but somewhat neglected 91 Streamer recently cleaned 20 years of gunk, smoke and even lemon oil coatings from it and now it looks like this and after cleaning the hardware it's looking a lot healthier and is now away getting a much needed refret.

deanovw Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I have recently joined the Warwick owners club with this '93 Walnut bodied Thumb 5 BO from littleal on here. I have gigged it a few times now and have to say that I may not been playing my trusty jazz bass again! I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahpook Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 whilst i remember, i don't think i've posted a pic of my streamer std - modded with a bartolini pickup and black bridge and knobs. i'm very impressed with the range of sounds available you can get from it - very punchy to smooth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgeous stuff, whatever it is.[/quote] Yep, "mahogany pommelé" according to Warwick, and it does look nice, with a good 3D effect. I'd been thinking that a mahogany bass would give me the sort of sound I like, but I find regular mahogany just reminds me of my Gran's wardrobe, so I wanted something that looked a bit different.

Chris2112 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Here is my new Warwick, traded from Warwickhunt just a couple of days ago. It's an absolute beauty. It plays brilliantly, it looks fantastic but the real joy is the tone. I plan to get some new photos taken of it tomorrow. I've never been so excited about a bass since I got my ACG, which bodes well!
