  1. Thanks, Woody1957!

     

    I love it too, almost my perfect bass. Turns out my actual perfect bass is exactly the same bass but with 5 strings, like the one I’ve just purchased. So this one has to go, because to my wife’s eye, it’s just two identical basses…

     

    Thanks again

  2. Nice Warwick Streamer Jazzman 4 string for sale. Everything's original and works fine, but I've just fitted a new Warwick just a nut 3 (post photos) as the original plastic one fell apart while fitting some new EB slinky strings. Lovely flamed maple with just a few (light) wear marks around the pick-ups (pictured), other than that it's in great condition and a lovely and very versatile player. Collection is preferred, I'm based just outside Stowmarket in Suffolk, but shipping at buyers cost would be considered and meeting half way, within reason, isn't out of the question. Original Warwick soft case is included. Please get in touch if you have any questions.

     

    Thanks

    Stunning, it would look great next to my other Thumb NT5 but not the right time for me to expand the collection. Just curious how do these pick-ups compare to the standard MEC JJ? Is the fretboard Wenge or Ebony?

    Hi vincbt 

    Thank you

    I don’t really know about the sound comparison tbh. I’ve only ever played a 6 string thumb other than mine, which I think  is basically exactly the same guitar (body/neck/pups) minus the higher string to make the string spacing bigger. They’re splits under the soap-bars covers, so a bit more p than j as I understand it (but probably totally wrong). A bit fuller and richer, but still super clear and punchy due to the pup positions. I haven’t gigged or played it (I’ve been a bedroom only player for about 20 years now) with other musicians, but I think the sound would be pretty big and monstrous if it were let loose.

    The fretboard is tiger stripe ebony, which again is beautifully figured, just more subtly. There’s 26 frets on there and you still get crazy piano-like clarity right up to the toppety-top. It’s a beautifully put together instrument. 
     

    Thanks again for your comments and interest 

    cheers

    Wow!
    This one is just gorgeous!!! Those swirls in the bubinga... ❤️ 
    Pity you won't trade for a 1984 Steinberger XL2. Pity you are on the other side of the tax and custom fence.
    I once had a beautiful Streamer Stage I broad neck; still miss that one...
    Good luck with the sale! 

    Thanks a lot, bassmayhem. 
     

    Yeah, I love the swirls. The pictures don’t even really capture how beautiful they are, it’s like a hologram after a polish. Beautiful. 
     

    Thanks again

    Beloved 2013 custom shop Warwick Thumb through-neck 5 string, built for me with the broad neck option and a lovely swirly bubinga pommele body. I'm the original owner, it's never been gigged, never even left my house. No mod's, no marks, regularly waxed, I still have all the tools and certificates and everything works perfectly. I get to play it roughly an hour a week. it's too nice to be an ornament.

    On the dodgy bathroom scales, I'm reading high 4's to 5 kilos, not sure if that sounds right, but it's defo on the heavy side and I know people like to know. I'm located in Suffolk and would be happy to travel to meet half way with a serious prospective buyer, or discuss splitting shipping costs etc. Original Warwick hard/flight case is also included  either way  

     

    Thanks
