Description updated (thanks Dyersave for clarifying a few more things!). 😁

Have a bump for a stunning instrument!!

Really love to try a team built model, look like a nice upgrade from the Korean. Is that a Cherry body as well? 😁 GLWTS

Ahh, thank you my friend. Straight from the horses mouth 😁 1988 or 1989 would be a good approximation, based on hardware, pickups and other such nuances. 1988 is my birth year so iv tended to want to believe that instead anyway 😂

Thanks 😁 I should add, I wouldn't rule out trades, but cash is what I'm trying to raise here. Any more specific pics please ask 🙂.

Now £950! 1988 vintage Warwick Streamer bass in a stunning gloss white finish. Overall in really good condition, bit of finish wear on fret edges but only minor cosmetic stuff. Full disclosure, the bass at some point in its life suffered the somewhat legendary neck crack at the truss rod anchor point. This one was minor, fully glued and repaired and stronger than ever, mostly hidden by refinish but can still be seen. Neck straight as an arrow and truss is sound and adjustable, entirely cosmetic now. Bass is a beaut, fine example of a vintage Streamer, huge sound, lightweight and perfect balance. Year is approx based on spec, like many gloss finished Wicks from the era, this had no serial number originally. It could be a late 87 or early 89, so in the middle 88 is a good shout. This has all the desirable features, with the original EMG pickups, wenge/maple neck and flamed maple body (not that the flame is visible!). Frets have plenty of life, MEC 2 band replaced with another at some point by previous owner, who also shot - blasted the originall tarnished gold hardware to give it a really cool satin chrome with a hint of gold look. May benefit a little from a setup but that's being picky! Weight approx 8 1/2 LB. Recorded with the bass earlier this year, can be heard on the track Secrets: https://cenfora.bandcamp.com/track/secrets Comes with Warwick gig bag. Exceptional bass, priced accordingly to its condition, in reality worth a helluva lot more 😁

Much want, much need!

My guess this is an MEC 3 band fitted in the nineties at some point. They just didn't exist in the eighties. Its not unusual, iv had an eighties two band fail on me, and my 88 Streamer has a nineties MEC pre fitted too.

Gorgeous example and arguably the best year for these basses. Very, very good price too! Re pre, if it is original it would have been custom order. If its MEC, it won't be original as the 3 band eq didn't exist in the eighties I don't believe.
