budget bassist

Recommended Posts

Nothing scratchy about it I'm afraid, had a luthier look at it today ( Peter Alan, great chap who gave some sound advice) and it is very much a crack, probably caused by an over tightening of the truss rod, but the crack has been filled at some point and iv been told that all will remain okay providing I don't go messing with the truss rod unecessarily or try and play death metal with inch thick strings! The bass is setup nice with low action and plays really well, it's otherwise a stunning example :)

Very nice. You're a man of similar taste to myself. I've got an' 87 Streamer and the same GK ... and I sold a Thumb bass only last month!!!

Hi Ive only just got into Warwick but the GAS hit me hard so here is my collection a 91 SSI, 97 SSII and a 97 Streamer Pro M fantastic basses although I dont play fretless so thinking of getting her fretted (unless someone has a fretted SSI in same condition they would like to swap?)

Took me a minute to realise that you weren't asking to swap a Pro M for a SSI. :D

Do you have an accurate weight for your Streamer (fretless)?

I'd love to try your fretless, but love my SS1 too much

The Pro M isn't going anywhere ;-) the SSI weights 8.41lb
