Nice one Andy! That 93 streamer bolt on is an absolue gem, and looks alarmingly like the big 5 string brother of my wonderstick!!!

We are bass brothers! :D

I've had it eight years now, and I'm still finding myself amazed at the things it does.

Congrats again on finding it, and I hope its as good to you as mine's been to me!

Man, this bass never ceases to amaze me!
What a tone!

I'm really impressed!

[Kris]

Nice fretless! What kind of stand is that?

[thndrstk6]

It's called an "Ultimate" stand.

[Boyitz]

I've got one of those too. Sturdy as ish.

[benjonesonbass]

[benjonesonbass]

[benjonesonbass]

[naetog]

The hardware is fading nicely, and it sounds amazing.

Hallo!

I'd like to get a membership, may I?

Meet my 1992 Streamer Stage I, bought two days ago (his big brother Thumb BO5 was felling lonely :-))... isn't he lovely? The electronics are not original, but I ordered Mec ones right today.

Greetings! I was disconnected a couple of weeks and I am happy to return and chat with you guys!! BTW, I see that the clubs have grown increasingly have shown more and more streamers!! :D

[maddrakkett]

I just finished putting new gold hardware (Bridge, knobs, Switchcraft Jack, Dunlop Straplok pins, JAN I, Tuners, Hipshot D-Tuner) on my Blue Stained, AAA, High Polish SSI. It looks gorgeous (better in person than the pic shows):



Bartolini pups with a special passive circuit (Vol - Blend - P Tone - J Tone; Alpha pots; Orange Drop caps) allow for seperate tone cuts on either pup and then blend together for more tonal combos than the average system.

I also went with a brass JAN I, and I LOVE the way it looks and adjusts!



I always wanted a gloss blue bass with gold hardware. This is now my second dream bass come true!

[Lewis]

@ pico322: that stage 1 is awesome i just love vintage streamers.

@ mark: love what you've done, the barts are going to sound great and that brass nut..... i love them.

[ThirdthumB]

Blue Flamed Maple plus gold hardware is sexyyyyyy......... 8)

[JHbass]

beautiful bass! but why is the E String tuner a bit more slanted than the rest? is that what the hip shot requires?

[maddrakkett]

No. Without the strings on, it was loose and hung that way before I noticed and took the pic... I also don't know what the white spots are on the headstock - they sren't on there in person.

[Benjamin]

Dust, kinda flames up with the flash

[maddrakkett]

I've got some better pics now, with strings on too (High Polish basses are not easy to photograph!):

[Samuel]

Why the change drakkett? You weren't pleased with how it sounded in it's original setup?

I've always though the Stage I:s are optimal the way they are with MEC:s, but hey, post some sound clips, and maybe you can prove me wrong!

[trujo777]

impresssive... love the golden hardware on this.

Well, the preamp was noisy when engaged, so I could have just replaced that, but I already had the Bartolini J pup and a P pup was cheaper than a new EQ. Then there's the fact that I like passive pups and circuits better than active anyway (personal choice) and finally, Florin is to blame. He came up with the passive separate tone controls for each pup and then blend them on his CS X-BASS. It was such a cool idea, I had to implement it myself and I actually like it! Plus, no batteries...

If I can get some free time this week (probably Wed. before I get a break from the docs), I will try and get some sound clips. Whether or not my setup is "better" I don't know, but I like it better and that's what counts! :wink: :D

[Benjamin]

That SSI is so hot. I Think I just wet my pants a little bit

[Callum]

That SS1 is very sexy, I know what you mean about the noisy pre-amp, my SS1 hisses when i boost the treble. Very tempted to put in the bart, aguilar pre combo into mine. I was toying with the all passive setup but i can't live with a bass with no pre-amp. Will probably add a active/passive pre-amp bypass switch if/when i upgrade.

Can't wait to hear some clips of your SS1 maddrakkett!

[pico322]

Maddrakkett, that axe is simply gorgeous. Gold hardware is awesome on that bass.

Happy groovin'!

Streamer LX-4 in Ocean Blue Stain High Polish - I love this bass. It's probably the best I have got.

[maddrakkett]

I dig how your camera makes it look purple - I actually would love to have a Streamer LX or Stage I in that color of purple!

Now, can you get us another pic that shows it in its true Ocean Blue color?

Nice bass fer sure!

[Martin Such]

Stunning! beautiful flaming on the body... I prefer Color Oil Finish to High Polish myself, but it really looks wonderful. Just post some pictures in beteer lighting, to show its real color...

[TTW]

It is pretty difficult to catch the color of the bass. Here is one photo, which shows the color and the nice flamed maple body.

[Martin Such]

F*ckin' awesome!

[ThirdthumB]

Yeah,

it looks like Prince Purple...... 8) Sweet....... :D

[anarchyok]

mate, that looks amazing. I love seeing Warwicks pimped out and brought back to life!!

[John88]

A picture of my SSI next to it's sinister cousin . . .



I'll try to get a better one soon. The flash really obscures the flame. :oops:

[lowblow]

ok, this is a nice one to start at the streamer-club...
last satursday we were rocking an openair in strasbourg, france. everything was fine, we were in the right mood, the sound was good and the songs went on as in the third one the sky went dark within a minute and right at the end of the song the rain poured down, just seconds left to unplug and stuff the bass in its bag. running and yelling poeple all over and the gig was done, what a mess... :cry:
next day i unpacked the bass and like a leopardfur, it had spots over and over. looks like a welldone custom-paint-job... maybe i should not wax it anymore, others spend a whole lotta money for such design :D

[Elrend]

Here`s my vintage Streamer, I`m not 100% sure what year this is from though

[Benjamin]

Nice one!
Hmm, one piece bridge. spector headstock. angled tuners. I think someone here with more knowledge than me can tell quite easily

[jamo]

This is my vintage Streamer, also from Norway.
There is no serialnumber, but Warwick believes it must be from between 82 and 84. Someone on this forum suggested 83.
I've been offline awhile and I think its great that there is a streamer page now.

[Benjamin]

Hvor i landet er du fra?

[jamo]

Kjæm opprinnelig fra Trondhjæm, æ. Har bodd på Frøya i 15 år nå. :D

[Benjamin]

Såpass! Enda en trønder :D
Si fra hvis du er i trondheim med bassen, kan vi spille litt

Streamer LX-4 in Ocean Blue Stain High Polish - I love this bass. It's probably the best I have got.

I want it .... I need it...

[Steve Becker]

Howdy,

Here she is - 2000 Streamer Stage 1 5-string, honey-violin finish, broadneck, 20 mm spacing, Seymour Duncan Basslines. I'm madly in love with her.
