I'll take it please (please see PM).

I used to have one of these in natural (bought from Ash ages ago). The neck was very nice to play having a fairly flat profile and the sound it made was very pleasant IIRC. I think I sold it for not much less than this price (and that was around 10 years ago now!).

This is now sold folks, thanks for the interest. Please freeze post thanks mods.

Hey all, I'm thinking of selling this Warwick Streamer LX BO Broadneck 5 string bass. I bought it on here a few years ago and want to move it on as it's not my go to bass. It's in an ok general condition and is currently strung with half wounds. It's perfectly useable, but certainly not pristine and the price reflects this, see below for more info; i. The neck is perfectly playable but the B string side has a small amount more relief on it than the G string side (this has ii. been so on most of my many wicks I've had in the past). ii. The action is fairly low as is, but there is a small amount of feet buzz on the G string around fret 4 or 5 when played harder. I’ve just done a week session on it as is with no probs though. iii. There is some random hole from the control cavity into the neck pickup cavity (can’t see it unless you take out the pickup). Think they got it wrong in the factory on the first go of the pickup cabling tbh!! iv. The body join near the neck bolts on the rear of the bass is more visible than in other areas. v. The frets are finished fairly poorly on one or two ends along the fretboard. vi. The double octave neck side dots are have been put in slightly wonky. vii. The black plastic oval shape on the battery connector is loose, battery connection still fine however. I bought it on here a few years ago for around £630 IIRC or so and have bought a new bridge saddle, new gold control knobs and the gold Schaller strap locks. I’m fairly picky about my basses and did think it was a bit of a ‘Friday’ bass, but in reality it’s plays well and it's nice to have a bass as I’m not overly precious about it (my other basses are a SS1 5 string and a Thumb 5 fretless BO Broadneck). Sound wise the bass is fairly mid focussed when set flat, say compared to the SS1 that is more open, due to this it sits nicely in a mix. The body is oiled maple (with a nice flame), neck Ovangkol and the fretboard Wenge. It has a 2 band MEC preamp and 2 MEC soapbar pickups. The string spacing is the Broadneck width, so the same as a SS1 5 string at 20mm +/- a bit. It comes with a set of Schaller straplocks. Info from the Warwick site: Serial number: E07512400 Article number: 1215150000GZFMAOBW produced: 2000-05-24 Description: Streamer, 5-string Natural Oil finish Flamed Maple A body Ovangkol neck Gold hardware Made in Germany Any questions just PM me please. For the asking price it’s a very good deal, it has it’s rough points, however overall it’s a pretty decent bass. I prefer to forward on any deals I get on here, hence the price. It's collection only from Halifax, West Yorkshire and I'm after £550. Peace.

Now sold folks, thanks for the interest. Please freeze.

Pm’d you Matt.

.... and for the Streamliner?

... my personal favourite of all the Limelight I've seen I think, GLWTS

Now considering trade offers for a lightweight head of some kind (Genz Benz Streamliner or Shuttle, Aguilar TH, Markbass etc) plus difference in £ OR a passive 5 string Jazz or P type bass with cash +/- depending. Hey folks, I recently got this double bass on an impulse after wanting to try one for a while but my time is better spent elsewhere I think. I bought it from it's original owner a month or so ago and they had bought it new a couple of years ago. It's in very good used condition with only a few minor usage marks, please see pictures below (there are actually very few marks on it, the light appears to give it a few more!) The front is solid whilst the sides and rear are laminated. It's on the smaller (and lighter) side of the 3/4 size so more easily transported and carried about. I'm just over 6 ft and with the endpin out, standing height is perfect. If you want to try out the world of Double Bass this is a good intro to it and a fairly inexpensive one. A padded soft case, stand and bow are also included in the sale. I'm asking £575 £450 firm collected from Halifax, West Yorkshire (or could meet up within reason) and any questions please just ask. Now considering trade offers for a lightweight head of some kind (Genz Benz Streamliner or Shuttle, Aguilar TH, Markbass etc) plus difference in £ OR a passive 5 string Jazz or P type bass with cash +/- depending. Peace.

Amazing build there, looks more well built than most commercial stuff I’ve seen!
