Warwick Streamer 1986. £2000

This is from the hand built golden era of Warwick and is an absolute beauty. It’s in stunning condition for it’s 38 years.

 

All original (except one replacement knob and the battery cover both of which are later Warwick genuine replacements).

Preamp is one of the sought after Vlado hand built preamps.

Pickups are the exceptionally rare and sought after Seymour Duncan with dip switches fitted at the factory as a new option and unlike many, they are in full working order.

Super light, super slim neck and body.

It’s a joy to play, being recently set up by Dave Wilson.

 

I’d always wanted one of these since I started playing in ‘86 but the neck is just too slim and I don’t find it works for me as I’m used to wide, five string necks.

Happy to keep it as a piece of wonderful wall art but it should be played really. I've owned it since around Dec 2021.

I don't have a case for it, but I'm sure I could find a generic hard case in the loft if you need one.

 

I'm a long time and known Warwick user on the forums. (I also have '91 Thumb NT, '03 Infinity NT and Corvette Ltd )

Happy for a chat or come up and play it - I’m in the Tyne Valley, UK.

This may be the cleanest example I've seen of one of these, and I'm not sure i've seen those pickups on anything other than a Thumb before.  A special bass indeed!

I notice I have a few watchers on this post. I’ll give it another few days and then it’ll be off for commission sale at a dealer. If you're considering buying it, drop me a message in the next few days and let’s see if we can put together a deal.
