Up for sale is my stunning 1988* Warwick Streamer Stage 1. Hand made in Germany. Now includes a hard case for safer shipping and price dropped to £850. shipping is £12.50 to mainland UK, £35 to most of EU, £55 to most of the rest of the world. Includes full insurance and tracking. There is no serial number on this so it is impossible to age it precisely but talking to various people on here who are very knowledgeable on all things Warwick it could have been made as early as '86 and as as late as 88' so ive gone for the 88' to be safe - also, from what I saw of the bass when it was being stripped, the woods looked identical to those on this '88 Streamer Stage 1( making it maple body with a wenge/maple neck): https://reverb.com/uk/item/2569081-rare-vintage-warwick-streamer-stage-1-1988-aguilar-on-board-preamp-emg-p-j Professionally refinished in a stunning gloss white by local luthier who also repaired the minor neck crack(which is a typical bug bear of these older pre-volute Warwicks from what I know - see the reverb ad above - the crack is almost identical!). This bass is all original except for the battery box which is a replacement from Warwick, the output jack, the pre-amp and pots (which are almost brand new MECs from a Warwick Fortress (the pre is a 2 band act/pass, bass, treb afair)). The frets were leveled and crowned by the same local luthier as well and it has received a full setup and new d'addario strings. The frets are down to about 50% from what I can see - see photos. Truss rod and electronics work perfectly! Neck profile and relief/action details (as best I can measure): Width @ nut 40mm Width @ 12th Fret 55mm Width @ 24th Fret 62mm Depth(front to back measured from fretboard) @ nut 23mm Depth @ 12 fret 23mm Depth @ 19th fret (before it joins the body) 27mm Relief(meaured at 7th fret with string fretted @ 1st and @ 20th frets) : 0.15" / 0.381mm Action @ 24th Fret 2.5mm - 1.75mm E - G Specs to the best of my knowledge: Maple body, wenge/maple neck, 24 bell brass frets, Mother Of Pearl dots front and side, brass Just a Nut I, solid brass Warwick 3D bridge, Schaller machine heads, Schaller straplock buttons, Warwick/MEC 2 band(bass and treble) EQ with active/passive with push pull volume. Weight is a very comfortable 4kg according to the kitchen scales though I swear it feels much lighter. The brass hardware including the screws, knobs, bridge nut etc. were all a heavily tarnished gold finish when I first got the bass so I shot blasted to reveal what i think is a pretty cool nickel looking colour. Paint finish is rather nice with only some minor blemishes on the front of the headstock that you can only see on very close inspection and the repaired neck crack is still visible under the paint as shown in the photos. The only other blemishes are the scratches on the cavity cover and the original varnish on the side of the fretboard is peeling away in some places but this cannot be felt underhand. I'm based nr Dudley, West Midlands Now includes a used but perfectly functional hardcase for safe shipping within the UK. If you need it shipping internationally I can add a brand new flight case at cost(£65) for safe international shipping.

White Elephant or Bargain of the Century.....!?!

Surely it depends what caused the output transistors to blow that is the key here. The blown trannies might by the symptom of the fault rather than the cause... -

Really? I've seen some Thors but nothing like this SB1200. In fact I haven't seen another Aria like this. The pups and bridge are definitely different to every other Aria I've seen

Ok so you know better than Warwick then...
-
and god only knows what wood it would be made of given the description that mentions a flame top veneer over an alder body when the photo im sure shows an ash of some description
-
how on earth do you reach this conclusion? Surely if this was the case all basses would be made from plywood or MDF or any other readily available and cheap material...

I recently bought a bass from Claude and was very pleased with the transaction. Claude is a real gent and the bass arrived safely and well packaged from Brussels to here in the UK. Deal with confidence

Made of alder with flame top veneer, very light. . All wire pathes and mounting holes are pridrilled. . I'll also offer a free back cavity cover for the body. . Weight: 1.5kg (3.3 lbs)
