    Hi, will take £250 for the Streamer. I'm playing guitar in a band these days so would be into guitar trades eg Epiphone 335/Les Paul/Telecaster/PRS SE etc

    Mint condition German made Streamer Std with Carolena body, ovangkol neck, wenge fingerboard, 2 MEC pickups and passive VVT controls. Warwick gig bag. Great player!

    also should mention that previous owner sanded off the 'made in mexico' and serial number off the front of the headstock. possible to see where they've been sanded off when viewed up close and from certain angles. needs to be mentioned for the sake of full disclosure. trade value £275 seem about right?

    Sold all my guitars and typical!....I'm now in the process of joining a band as guitarist. Anyway I want something with better pickups than my yamaha pacifica. interested in most styles eg Epiphone Dot,Les Paul,telecaster etc. Looking to do a deal for my Mark Hoppus bass in daphne blue. the bass is in really good condition but has some discoloration on the inside of the horns and some of the body edges, Previous owner must have smoked about 60 a day I think as the gig bag still smells of stale cigarettes after 3 months of owning it. NO structural or playability issues with the bass at all. I would like to get a quick deal done on this as I start rehearsing next week. will get better pics up tomorrow. in the meantime these are all I have of the Hoppus

    I bought one from Thomann a couple of weeks ago. Admittedly it was not great out of the box and if I had paid £400, I'd have been returning it! But I knew most of the issues were set up ones with these basses, having read plenty of user/owner reviews before purchasing mine. I've spent a bit of time setting it up since I got it, I've also rounded the fingerboard edges and I'm happy with it now. I shouldn't have to do that I agree, but what the OP says is spot on, if you feel competent at setting it up it's worth £155 (imo). When I ordered mine, it was only the black ones left but that would have been my first choice anyway.

    I picked up one in the same finish last week off Glasgow Gumtree. really liking it and quite possibly a keeper!

    [quote name='tonyf' timestamp='1339778355' post='1694285'] That's a long time ago now isn't it? We're getting old mate T [/quote] sure was Tony, it was about 15 basses ago and when I was the right side of 40 Keir
  12. dub_junkie
    This was my old bass and was traded with tonyf for his Spector. At the time I had this and a gold solid body Asat bass too and tony chose this one out of the two. I loved this bass and loved gigging it. Lush bass but as stated is going for twice what it went for in a few BC deals. when it was mine: [IMG]http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s162/dub_junkie/Basses/006.jpg[/IMG]

    G&L L5500

    dub_junkie replied to EmmettC's topic in Bass Guitars

    [quote name='EmmettC' timestamp='1338201041' post='1670626'] These are the original pups, G&L pups are amazing so I'm not sure why they went with EMG for this model. [/quote] Somebody more knowledgable than me on here regarding G&L said the L5500 was a stopgap model. The previous G&L 5 string (L5000) had really tight string spacing so the 5500 filled the gap until the L2500 was ready. I don't think that many of them were made. I played one in McCormacks a number of years ago and I quite liked it. A very different set of tones from the usual G&L MFD/tri-tone set up for sure. Personally I'd kep the bass as is and try and get a trade on it for something you'd prefer

    Colin bought my black Stingray 5H this week. Paid the money into my account quickly and arranged everything from there. Friendly on the phone and a pleasure to do business with! Second time I've sold something to him and both straightforward. Cheers Colin, Really appreciate the hassle free nature of the deal.

    Last bump before I take it off for sale So many great basses for sale on here. Wish it was 5 years ago and everyone was buying !!

    the switch is to select between parallel/single coil/series on the single humbucker version and it does give 3 distinct and usable tones to start with before fiddling around with the 3EQ. [attachment=107610:IMG_0208.jpg][attachment=107609:IMG_0162.jpg][attachment=107608:IMG_0146.jpg][attachment=107603:IMG_0149.jpg][attachment=107604:IMG_0150.jpg][attachment=107605:IMG_0838-1.jpg][attachment=107606:IMG_0213.jpg][attachment=107607:IMG_0214.jpg] [attachment=107613:IMG_0841.jpg][attachment=107614:IMG_1246.jpg][attachment=107615:IMG_0837.jpg][attachment=107616:IMG_0217.jpg][attachment=107617:IMG_0829.jpg][attachment=107618:IMG_2479.jpg][attachment=107619:IMG_2316.jpg] Although I have my eyes on something, I would likely trade for a Spector Euro 5 preferably with poplar burl,zebrawood or spalted maple finishes.would consider other finishes too. (I miss my old Euro 5's) Possibly a Warwick Streamer or Thumb 5. Let me know what you got
  18. dub_junkie
    I took this in a trade last year for my Bongo 5HH. Its a 2005 build. Has a few knocks and dings on the back and a couple on the side. No marks on the front. Ding on the front of the headstock. Also had a ding on the back of the neck up near the headstock when I got it but I've steamed that with an iron and tablecloth (!!) and got it nearly back flat again.It is still noticeable under my thumb but doesn't bother me at all now. Also the case is a Musicman 2006 Limited Edition C&G tolex type with gold interior.I think these were the cases for the buttercream Stingrays. Has the usual fat Stingray 5 tone,very balanced across the strings in tone and volume. great sounding B string on a 34" scale length. I love these basses but I am saving for my wedding and find myself GASsing after something a bit different which I've seen new elsewhere. £775 collection from Ayrshire. Will be happy to box up if someone wants to arrange their own courier Cheers Keir

    getting serious pangs for a Euro 5 again looking at this thread and wondering whether one of my Stingray 5s should be a Euro 5? some really beautiful basses on here

    I'm pretty sure this was mine one upon a time and I traded it away to a fella from the north east 12 years ago. Well the flame on both the body wings looks the same as old photos I have of my SS1 Great price! I wish I could afford it.
  21. dub_junkie
    the finish is called metal flake brown and was available between 1999 and 2001. iirc it was introduced and discontinued along with another two colours - metal flake green and pearl lavender (and possibly pearl platinum as well). I have a '00 Stingray 5 in the pearl lavender finish (similar to fender's burgandy mist)

    I managed to get 'Silver Box' for £4.49 on iTunes last month. I bought it as it includes their 'lost' album 'Our Secrets Are The Same' and that got me listening to a number of their albums again,Street Fighting Years being one of them. I forgot what a solid body of work it is and like has been said, works from first to last song.
