[quote name='warwickhunt' post='380614' date='Jan 14 2009, 07:44 PM']Q&A re. ending listing early - 'I'm happy to get what I paid for it.'... I'm sure she would be but unless she got it for less than £900 she may be a tad disappointed. [/quote] Well it has now passed my estimated £900... there's also an early 90's Streamer on eBay for £950 BIN AND I've just watched an 88 model fetch £1000. I'll wait a few months yet before declaring the bass recession over but it is looking good.

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='389322' date='Jan 23 2009, 09:49 AM']You'll be pleased to know John that with reference my previous post I have actually won the lottery! So will £10 do it then? Beautiful btw. Sorry to hear about your mate. As you know I've been a biker most of my life and it's given me many moments of truly memorable times but when it bits back it can bite hard. Peter[/quote] Thanks for the sentiments Peter. I wasn't trying to bring the thread down or go for the sympathy vote by mentioning my friend Carol, it was just as a way of clearing the air in case someone thought I was just trying to 'off-load' basses. Oddly enough Carol is pretty chipper despite having 1.5 legs and has been in the papers a bit lately due to her fund raising for the Air Ambulance, it has even led to a bit of modelling work and she's a very positive person 'because' of the accident.

That was obviosly before they turned it into the bassguitarlookingbuilding it is now.

[quote name='LukeFRC' post='388919' date='Jan 22 2009, 07:22 PM']Hi guys A new streamer has a list price of over 3 grand. My blue one 1991 one was listed at £600 as that is what I paid for it, off of warwickhunt, six months ago. For the life of me I do not feel my one, or this one are worth as little as 600; I did feel it wrong however, to make a profit at the expense of someone else on this board and that is why my blue one was/is as cheap as it is. Thats my ethics or my stupidity and not what a early warwick stage one is worth! Warwickhunt is an honest, helpful and great guy to deal with. And he has some great basses for sale at good prices. Get your PM's to him now! [/quote] Hey cheers Luke. I hope you know that I wouldn't have been offended if you'd asked more for your bass but I suppose it is the kind of person you are that you punted it back out for what you got it for. So are 'you' going to be getting the bass that you had your eye on then?

[quote name='rjb' post='388904' date='Jan 22 2009, 07:08 PM']So what's the deal with all this selling? Do you have your eye on something else? Had enough of Warwicks? Will you change your name to "Sadowskyhunt" or something? [/quote] Tbh a year or two ago it was a bit sad as I got to the point where my personal crusade (spanning 20+ years) to find the best of the best from Warwick led to me starting to collect Warwicks for the sake of being able to say that I had more than anyone else! However, after holding a friend together after a near fatal motorbike crash the status of owning stuff has kinda lost its appeal and owning a particular bass doesn't mean much anymore.... I can sound like a bag of shyte on most basses. This epiphany has allowed me to kind of settle on the amp & cab that I have at present and virtually any of the basses that I have will give me a decent tone, so I'm going to keep a couple of the less luxurious models and just have a dabble with a few basses bought from the 'pot' that I will have from these sales. Sadowsky you say... hmmm!

[quote name='Beedster' post='388820' date='Jan 22 2009, 05:48 PM']Love the 2-stringer[/quote] It's a Warwick rip-off! I actually find many aspects of that quite attractive!

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='388572' date='Jan 22 2009, 02:38 PM']Yes... I'm sure he'd like that. Aaaaanyway... I've redone the poster. I got bored of the old one already. [/quote] Those machineheads look distinctly 'Fendery'... has the anti-Warwick backlash started already? Best you try again matey boy with some distinctly 'W' shaped tuners! Nice to see Dave on board, do we have an idea of numbers as we stand at the minute? If it's a hand full it'll be the 'Luxury' pack of biccies if there's likely to be a horde then the Rich Tea and Digestives will be out!

Anyone out there really like inlays?
warwickhunt replied to Annoying Twit's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
[quote name='MB1' post='387545' date='Jan 21 2009, 02:22 PM']MB1. Looks like another Antonatsai bass and if so the price could be a litttle steep! [/quote] How long would it have taken the guy to inlay the 'shell'? That alone even at minimum wage would account for a fair slice of cash, the skeleton of the bass may be a brandless BO average bass but at £300 it can't be accused of being too expensive. Ultimately if it plays like a pice of sh*t then it is a piece of sh*t but were I after something to stand out from the crowd I'd give it a second look. -
As with the other basses that I have for sale I've had a lot of interest and interesting offers. I don't want to dick about and mess people round but I'm trying to firm up/confirm one or two offers of trades. However I do have to stress that these sales aren't because I'm suddenly destitute so I'm not giving any basses away. Luke may well have advertised his Stage I bass @ £600 (and sold it quickly ) but I'm not selling my fretless as cheaply (no disrespect Luke ) and my Ltd Ed bass is into 4 figures which may at least settle the matter for a few people. Cheers for all of the PMs and I'll sort this shortly but in the meantime there's no harm in keeping offers coming.

Heres a very interesting setup for sale with Kudos
warwickhunt replied to Prosebass's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
[quote name='misrule' post='388073' date='Jan 21 2009, 11:09 PM']I don't know much about Marshall gear -- but I thought they only made 4x12s for bass. Are these ones guitar cabs or did they previously make 4x10s? I wondered, since Severin mentioned there could be 15s in storage too, if he'd bi-amped. Cheers Mark[/quote] Marshall have done several 4x10's. It was a bit vague and off-putting not knowing what was actually for sale! -

[quote name='Prosebass' post='387925' date='Jan 21 2009, 07:49 PM']£770 final bid.....I hope it all works. Did anyone have a punt then ?[/quote] (at least) 2 amps, 4 cabs and assorted cases... got to be worth £770 even if it needs a bit of work. Can't help thinking that splitting it up would have gotten a greater price! -

Warwick Streamer... screw it its withdrawn
warwickhunt replied to LukeFRC's topic in Basses For Sale
[quote name='mogli66' post='386894' date='Jan 20 2009, 10:50 PM']No problem.....if the P-bass sells first give me a shout if you're looking for trades on the Warwick. [u][b]I take it you are selling the Warwick for £400[/b][/u]?[/quote] If only! The Warwick was advertised @ £600. It's the P bass that is £400.
