    Hi all, Pains me to do it, but I'm desiring a 5 string jazz to match my 4 string FenderAmerican Deluxe Jazz, so it means this has to go to pay for it. It's the best 5 string I've ever had - it's a 2002 Warwick Streamer Stage I. It's neckthrough, and has Aero pickups and a John East preamp. The sound is still very Warwick - woody, punchy, tight and focused. Amazing for funk, but I've been using it on functions (soul/motown/funk/pop) and jazz gigs and it's performed amazingly. [url="http://s891.photobucket.com/user/mikemcgibney/media/photo2.jpg.html"][/url] (That small black dot is a little bug from the garden by the way!) Controls - pickup blend, master volume, bass/treble boost/cut pots, a three way switch that acts like a high pass filter (it's quite a bright sounding bass so this tames it if you want less high end). This was put in by Mike Walsh of Iceni Zoot basses. The neck is gorgeous - very comfortable for me (with my small hands!) and quite flat. Very smooth. Small ding on the back of the neck, general playing wear (see pics) but generally in great condition. Looking for £1200 - maybe a trade with a Fender American Deluxe Jazz 5. These basses cost something like £4000 on Thomann (amazing!) so I think this is a good deal. The bass doesn't come with a case (I might have a cheapy one in the loft - in fact, I might even have an old hard case there, I'll check it out) so ideally it would be pickup only, though can maybe ship at buyer's expense (and risk!). I'm in Chelmsford, Essex (CM2 postcode) which is right on the A12 not far from J28 on M25. For some diesel money I can probably deliver depending on distance! Or even travel into London to hand it over. Any questions shoot me a message!

    I love elixir strings - they're all I use. This is such a big increase I'm going to have to look elsewhere. Maybe if enough people moan in emails or on twitter etc they might reconsider.

    How about a Gary Willis fretless 5 Ibanez?

    The Police

    Mike replied to xilddx's topic in General Discussion

    I love Sting and the Police. He is often referred to as 'pretentious' but when you see what he's accomplished, the eclectic group of musicians with whom he has surrounded himself and learned, the travelling and work he's done, you realise it's quite unfair. In interviews he is humorous, self-deprecating but not afraid to be serious about certain issues. His albums of folk music or 16th century Dowland lute compositions opened me up to some new music for which I'm very grateful!
