Hey Josh,

Love it - really dark with loads of midrange (trying to avoid the "g" word).

It complements my Std (which has a more old-school p-bass sound due to it's single pup) very well.

Cheers guys,

Just picked up the Thumb - it's a sweet example with a great swirly bubinga body. Just had to buy it.

Cheers,

Well if that's you in the pic with the Jazz, then the Jazz-shaped Lakland Darryl Jones 5 would be a great place to start.

Fooking beautiful bass.

Also in blue....!


For a custom-made option Shuker basses seem to get some good press around here....

£177 is brilliant for a Streamer Std. The prices they go for certainly don't reflect the tone and build quality.

Because Warwick replaced the Stds with the Rockbasses they get unfairly compared with them when they should in fact be compared with mid range Fenders and Ibanezes.

Wooks: If you find you're a bit more flush you should perhaps consider making Onehappybunny even happier and have a look at the Katana he just shamelessly plugged!

Gah, if only I had an extra £525....

Very nice indeed!

I own a Warwick 2005 Thumb NT and a 2000 Streamer 1PU Std.

The Streamer Stds were and are great value for money, with a ovangkol/wenge neck. I won't be parting with mine - I love playing it and they are fast becoming collector's items.

Because of the slab-like body the Std feels and sounds like a cross between a Fender P-Bass and a higher-end Warwick. I put a Seymour Duncan Pre-amp into mine and it sounds brilliant.

A Streamer Std or a Corvette or will certainly do the job for you. Don't bother with Rockbass when you can get these secondhand for decent money.

How about a Squier Bronco Bass?

That'd be my choice...

Gonna bump this for you.

Good luck with that sale.

Mmmm. Tempted.

Is the ramp thing removable, then? It doesn't appear on all the pics.

This is a beautiful "vintage" example, but £900 is a little sharp for me at the moment.

Good luck with the sale.

I'm a Warwick player (a 2000 Streamer Std that is no longer made) and am on the lookout for a Thumb BO4.

I personally would ascribe their current relative unpopularity to the whole post-punk revival trend at the moment - the Fender look is "cooler".
