dazco Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) I am selling my Warwick stage one Streamer It is a polished natural colour, four string, fretted. The hardware is 18v, apparantly. I am in Preston, Lancs. No trades thanks, I have to accept that I will never be bothered to learn. Comes with a soft case. Offers taken, at the moment. I cannot find how much it is worth.

I'll give you £50! Best of luck!

I bought it from a chap on here, YouMa (Mark) and it is exactly the same condition. Should we say £650
oldslapper Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Was it this one? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=34298&hl=YouMa"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=34298&hl=YouMa[/url] Looks nice? P/J config always looks tempting.
dazco Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 That's the one. I searched for it but could not find it. Cheers

[/quote] I did notice that you put a winky sign after that, however..... It's like saying if you got a bass for free as a gift, then you should also give it away. It's worth what the seller and buyer agree. Values change over time as well, both upwards and downwards, so I've never been able to agree with the view that some express here that you must never sell a bass for more than you paid for it. Off topic, but you do get a BUMP. Frank.

There is a streamer for sale on here right now that needs re-furbing, and the owner is asking £650. He has been told this is a good price. There is another Streamer that is a bolt on neck (and I believe not 18v) that is £520. When I bought this, Warwicks were seriously out of vogue. In fact I started a thread about it. Had they gone even more out of vogue would anybody be asking me to put the price up to £560, if I offered it at £460? Because I bought it off here, and to keep to the spirit of BC, I will take £600 for it which is £20 more than my outlay for it.. Someone gets a bargain in my opinion.

dazco Posted June 29, 2010 Author Posted June 29, 2010 Warwick is now sold, the chap who bought it appears to be some kind of Jedi Knight on it. Cheers Chris.
Shirezy Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 It's the neck through overhang on it, they tend to have the extra bit of fretboard material there. Ta very much for the bass, i've just had a good few hours noodling on it and it'll be getting its first airing this Thursday

I am glad it has gone to someone who knows what the hell they are doing with it. This guys fingers are as fast as lightening
Shirezy Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 You're too kind. Hopefully i'll do this bit of kit proud, it's a lovely creature. Also, i hope none of Gone til Winter see this because i'm just going to get it out at the gig and see they notice the new toy...
YouMa Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Interesting to see my old bass has gone to manchester now,look after her,if you are interested she used to belong to paul rogers from free/queen apparently he likes playing bass in his spare time.
