spacecowboy Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) After buying my new Dingwall I have completely converted to the Canadians and fear that this is far too nicer and expensive a bass to perhaps become second best and sit redundant. For sale is my Warwick Streamer Stage II from 1988 a fantastic sounding and superbly playable bass, for a 22 year old bass it's in fantastic condition there is however a slight chip on the underside of the bass which is not visible when playing it's about 2mm squared I will take photographs tonight of this as it really is the only damage, the Afzelia is distinctly figured and the wenge neck is beautiful and dark with fantastic examples of the yin yang inlays, I'm sat on the train now so I will have to link to existing pics of it on the net and have these replaced tonight, any questions I will be glad to answer if you require a specific shot just let me know and I'll get it done, you're welcome to try it it's currently in Portsmouth with me, it will come with a Warwick gig bag, tin of very used wax, original straplocks, new set of Warwick bell brass frets that were included with the original sale of the bass and it's strung currently with a set of black beauties. It's an amazing bass and has been my main bass for the past 5 years but my hearts with my Dingwall now and I can't afford to be flashy! £1200 FIRM. no trades. Postage £15 or collected. Cheers, Ben.

warwickhunt Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 An '88 SSII is a 'lush' instrument indeed! I've owned a couple and played several more from this period and NONE have been anything less than stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Pepper Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Lovely looking bass. Just to say that recently purchased a Stage I from Ben and he is a very decent guy to deal with, so buy with confidence. Have a bump. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
