    I wish you had told me earlier, I could have got another eight quid for that.

    Your guitar is in a better place :)

    Ta very much for the bass, i've just had a good few hours noodling on it and it'll be getting its first airing this Thursday :)[/quote]
    Hiya chap.

    I am glad it has gone to someone who knows what the hell they are doing with it.

    This guys fingers are as fast as lightening

    It's like saying if you got a bass for free as a gift, then you should also give it away. It's worth what the seller and buyer agree.

    Values change over time as well, both upwards and downwards, so I've never been able to agree with the view that some express here that you must never sell a bass for more than you paid for it.

    Off topic, but you do get a BUMP.

    I quite agree. I only bought it because I thought it was significantly undervalued.

    There is a streamer for sale on here right now that needs re-furbing, and the owner is asking £650. He has been told this is a good price.

    There is another Streamer that is a bolt on neck (and I believe not 18v) that is £520.

    When I bought this, Warwicks were seriously out of vogue. In fact I started a thread about it. Had they gone even more out of vogue would anybody be asking me to put the price up to £560, if I offered it at £460?

    Because I bought it off here, and to keep to the spirit of BC, I will take £600 for it which is £20 more than my outlay for it.. Someone gets a bargain in my opinion.

  4. [quote name='LukeFRC' post='880359' date='Jun 28 2010, 09:08 PM']blah blah blah someone will come along tell you you have to have a price, forum rules.

    someone else will come along and tell you it's not real without pictures,

    the third person will come and ask how old it is,

    and me, im just amazed you have such a nice bass to learn on![/quote]

    What would you ask for it?

    I bought it from a chap on here, YouMa (Mark) and it is exactly the same condition. Should we say £650

  5. I am selling my Warwick stage one Streamer

    It is a polished natural colour, four string, fretted.

    The hardware is 18v, apparantly.

    I am in Preston, Lancs.

    No trades thanks, I have to accept that I will never be bothered to learn.

    Comes with a soft case.

    Offers taken, at the moment. I cannot find how much it is worth.

  6. [quote name='lojo' post='852935' date='May 31 2010, 08:41 PM']Surely thats about right, I tracked a lot for 6 months or so to gauge it before paying bang on that myself last year[/quote]
    Sold for nearly £1100. It was looking a lot worse

  7. I have a very nice Ric soon to end on eBay.

  9. [quote name='iamapirate' post='578670' date='Aug 23 2009, 11:24 PM']What a strangly attractive bass.

  10. [quote name='bythesea' post='578654' date='Aug 23 2009, 11:09 PM']Have a look at the back particularly - on a lot of high end basses you would expect to see each side matching (usually book-matched), but the grain on one side is totally different to the other.

    Not that it has to of course, and this is still rather stunning for a ric (considering I don't usually like them)[/quote]
    Thanks for that, I was looking at the very edges.

    Now that you have pointed it out it has become glaringly obvious. Beautiful, but bit of a shame.
