  1. 1600£ 1900 Eur For sale an all original 1978 jazz bass in black color No issues (truss rod ok, neck ok, electronics ok, etc...) Low action and frets in very good shape Typical 1970's sound and lightweight (4.4 kg) considering the standard late 70s production. Thumbrest and bridge cover included. Pickup cover missing Pots are all dated 137 78 xx Pickups date is not readable since the rubber is sticked to the bottom and I don't want to remove it beacuse I am afraid to damage the pickups. Anyway they are period correct gray bottoms and the solders seem all original The only flaw is a little piece of the nut that is missing on the treble side. It doesn't affect playing and it can be fixed very easily. Under the pickguard there is the period correct sticker with matching serial number with the headstock. Sold with a standard hard shell case (not the one pictured)
  2. 1380 £ 1600 Eur For sale a 1986 Warwick Streamer. Serial #600 This is a 1st genaration Streamer bass when the name was only Streamer without "stage I" or "II" At that time production at warwick was only handcrafted and each bass was equivalent to a custom shop one. These basses have unique characteristics borrowed from USA produced Spector basses (see below for the story): 3D schaller bridge marked warwick ultralight schaller tuners mounted straight (and not angled as on the contemporary warwicks) EMG active pickup system (not MEC as contemporary warwicks) In addition: neck through construction cherry wood body and wengé neck perfect craftmanship Truss rod works perfectly No issues Lightweight!!!!!! The story: [font=sans-serif]It was well documented that the first versions of the Streamer were near exact copies of the NS-Bass. The Spector NS-Bass was designed by Ned Steinberger for Stuart Spector in 1977, five years before Warwick was formed.[/font] [font=sans-serif]In the May 2012 article titled "Meet Your Maker: Hans Peter Wilfer of Warwick", an interview with Warwick founder and CEO in [i][url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_Player_(magazine)"]Bass Player[/url][/i], the following history is given explaining Wilfer's decision to make copies of the highly sought-after Spector NS-Bass: "'We didn’t see any reason to build Fender copycats, which players could get easily and cheaply from Asia, so we decided to focus only on high-end, innovative instruments.' In the mid ’80s, the Spector NS was tracking well in the U.S., but these basses proved hard to come by in Europe. H.P. saw that problem as a potential solution for the direction of his company and took up the task of designing his own version of this popular, ergonomically friendly instrument. That venture resulted in Warwick’s first widely successful instrument: the Streamer Stage I."[sup][url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamer_Bass#cite_note-2"][2][/url][/sup][/font] [font=sans-serif]At the annual [url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musikmesse"]Musikmesse[/url] Show (Frankfurt, Germany) in 1985, Stuart Spector became aware that a new German-based company was producing exact copies of his now famous NS-Bass. Spector, along with Ned Steinberger, confronted Hans Wilfer and he agreed to pay a licensing fee to both Spector Guitars and Ned Steinberger in return for being able to continue to produce the Streamer without legal action.[sup][url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamer_Bass#cite_note-Spector_1997_Letters_to_the_Editor_Pg.2-3"][3][/url][/sup][/font] [font=sans-serif]Shortly after this agreement was reached, Spector was sold to Kramer Guitars. The new owners had no interest in pursuing Warwick to enforce the licensing agreement and Warwick continued to make the Streamer without any consequence.[/font]
  3. I attach pictures of body without pickguard and neck dismatled as requested by some people in pm.
  4. [s]1890£ [/s]1800£ [s]2200 Euros[/s] 2100 Eur OBO For sale a gorgeous 1972 telecaster bass. All original. Sold with a brand new G&G case in black tolex and black lining (the red lined case on the pics is NOT for sale, see last pic for the case included in the sale). Electronics and truss rod work as they should. Not a lightweight. Very nice and straight neck. Some dings and dongs that give that vintage vibe. Very powerful and unique sound More pics here [url="https://www.facebook.com/pg/Vintage-Possibilities-1482562132039940/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1657061057923379"]https://www.facebook...657061057923379[/url]
  5. For sale or trade 1380 £ 1600 Euros OBO For sale a gorgeous 1983 pre erniball stingray in white color This baby weight only 3,6 kg (about 8 pounds) on my bathroom scale. Very good condition and fully functional. Truss rod and electronics work as the should Frets are almost new and the neck is straight and fast Finish looks original but it is nitrocellulose lacquer. Since nitro finish should not be used in that period by musicman I suspect that the bass has been refinished. In any case if it has been refinished it is a pro job and the bass looks gorgeous. When I bought it, the original pickup was on the case and a bassiline pickup was installed. I put back the original one on the bass. The price reflects this "flaws" If you want a killer bass , lightweight that looks gorgeous this can be the real deal. The bass is sold with a ABS black case with black lining. The case on the pictures is NOT for sale.

  6. Bought a killer 1979 inca silver stingray from Niels. He is a very nice person and very competent seller. The bass arrived quickly and packed in a manner it could have survived a bomb attack! Thanks!!!
  7. This is really a rare beauty. ..I have a 1977 inca Silver and I think it is the best color ever. .. https://m.facebook.com/pg/Vintage-Possibilities-1482562132039940/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1568129480149871
  8. Hi any trade? A 1983 pre ernieball stingray in white and very very good condition?
  9. Traded my JB CS 62 for Antoine's pre EB stingray. Communication was good and effective. Shipment was fast and the bass was packaged to survive to a nuclear war (and definitely to a trip from north west France to north east Italy). You can deal with confidence with this good basschatter!!!!
  10. Smooth transaction. Top basschatter.
  11. Bought a stingray from Ferenc. During the discussion about the bass he gave me any detail I asked. He packed the bass safely and shipped it promptly. When the bass arrived he was incredibly supportive about a problem on the bass that raised because of my fault. He helped me to solve it. Really not only one of the best basschatters by one of the kindest person I ever met. Thanks Ferenc!!!
