This guitar was built in 2001 with German "grundlichkeit". A fabulous piece of wood and a gorgious look.
It is a 34", 24-fretted 5-string bass, completely active with 1 Mec humbucker as bridge pickup and 1 single-coil neck pickup.
A control over the treble, mid and bass + a kind of eq. when you pull a knob makes the Bass very "allround", Jazz, Funk, rock, you name it, the sound is there.
The wood is beautiful but soft, fastly dented.

Sound : 10
The Streamer jazzmen suits me well for the music I play. Qith my band Streetlife I play pop, soul, rock and funk.
I use as a bassam a very old Marshall 5522 with a 400 W 4x10" H&K. With my old bass, a Ibanez SS405, I had to push my amp to the limit, with the Streamer i don't. Warwick's credo "the sound of wood" is fully true. I hanen't used it in the studio, but i think this instrument is good for every place, on stage as wel as i an studio

Action, Fit, & Finish : 8
The setup wans't to great from the factory, I had to tune it for appr half a day to set the bass straight. The bass is fully adjustable, bridge and top. It's a hard job to adjust it, but because of the adjustablility very accurate.
As I wrote, the bass is made of a soft kind of wood (maple A) and a scratch is easy made. But who cares, I'm not plannig to hang it on the wall to look at, I want to play it. The hardware (gold) is really beautyful and is top of the German bill

Reliability/Durability : 10
This bass will last forever

Customer Support : No Opinion

Overall Rating : 10
I play now for moere then 20 years, had several basses (From Maya's to Gibsons) and this is definately the last bass i bought. When the Streamer is going to be stolen, a new Streamer will again be my choise.
