Wednesday afternoon bump.
-
Good evening all,
For sale is my 2008 warwick streamer jazzman 5. I'm the second owner of this bass and due to me saving for a deposit for a flat with my other half, i'm having a clearout of gear i don't use that much. This bass has the thicker 2000's neck profile which i've found i don't particularly like (hence i don't play it that often) but other than this its an excellent instrument. I had the preamp changed to an East U-Retro deluxe to match my Warwick 6 string, which cost around £280 including the install (done by Jack Ellis in Manchester).
PRICE REDUCED TO £800
Full specs are as follows
Model: Streamer Jazzman 5
Neck Wood: Ovangkol
Fingerboard Wood: Wenge
Scale Length: 34"
Frets: 24
Body Wood: Swamp Ash
Topwood: Flame Maple
Finish: French Violet
Pickups: MEC MM (coil tap for series, parallel and single coil) and MEC J
Preamp: East U-Retro Deluxe
Custom Options: Saturn inlays and matching headstock. Preamp is aftermarket along with separate battery box. This modification was done by Jack Ellis of Jack's Instrument Services in manchester and is a top quality installation. The bass is currently strung with a fairly fresh set of DR High Beam strings (130-45)
There is some buckle rash along the bottom of the body of the bass from the original owner, as can be seen in the photos.
Bass comes with a fitted aluminium warwick flight case, comfort strapp, manual and warwick servicing kit.
Price is reduced to £800. Cash [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]or bank transfer [/font][/color]only, NO TRADES. Pickup is preferred (i can deliver around the yorkshire area and to some parts of Manchester) but will ship at buyers expense. Shoot me a PM if you need any more information!
Thanks all,
Ben -
Hey Guys
Here is my transcription of Hadrien's solo from Dean Brown's "Santo Para Mim". Its the first solo of Hadrien's that i've really enjoyed listening to and there's some really lovely language in it (I love the double stop section). Some of the fastest sections are approximate but more or less accurate.
The solo is from 6:02 - 7:14
Enjoy
Ben

IMHO Johns preamps are the best on the market, the U-Retro completely transformed my Warwick streamer. And his after sales service is second to none!!

Shep, dont do it!!!
-
Noooo Matt, dont do it!!!
-
I use DR Hi-Beams on both my warwicks (both fitted with East Preamps) and they sound great
-
Cheers bud
I've a few more transcriptions in the works in a similar vein, check them out when they go up! -
WOW!! thats incredible is it tuned B-G or E-C?
-
D'Angelo is awesome I know it isn't with Pino on bass but i just posted a transcription of 'Cant Hide Love' from the Jazz Cafe concert in theory and technique, some of you might enjoy it, its a killer recording

Easy guys,
This is my transcription of D'Angelo's 'Cant Hide Love' from the Live At The Jazz Cafe recording. There are one or two fills that i borrowed from an absolutely epic bass playalong i saw on youtube (which annoyingly i now can't find!!) but other than that its as per the record. This concert features Jerry Brooks on bass.
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif](note - I'm fairly sure the harmony is correct, its what we used on the ship and it sounded right, but if anyone thinks otherwise let me know!)[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hope you enjoy it [/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Cheers![/font][/color]

have you gone for the overwater preamp rather than the East devine circuit? looks absolutely gorgeous!!
-
is this still for sale??
-
That new preamp sounds awesome mike, lovely sweet mids and top end, great playing too!! I had a similar experience when i had the East circuit put in my warwick
-
If you love your warwick, then stick with it. As Scott explains in the video above, so much of the sound is down to the player, not the instrument
-
May end up doing an extra cruise contract at this rate to fund it having said that i got my warwick back from Jack Ellis' shop today and after his advanced setup it plays better than ever...argh!!
-
Owen, you have a PM!!
-
PM'd
-
why on earth are you looking to trade/sell this if its your dream instrument??
-
Owen, are those tickets for the Manc gig still available??
-
WOW! that top really is something else! I'm taken back to a conversation i had with martin at the NE bash....have to start saving soon....
-
Another lovely example of Jon's work!
-
If thats what you've found then fair play to you Its a gorgeous bass, good luck with the sale!
-
If you want a 5 with a low B why not get Adamovic to cut a new nut for you and set it up for B-G tuning?
