Thought I'd share this with fellow enthusiasts. This bass isn't a custom order, it is a production bass that came with a signed certificate identifying it as a limited edition, is it the earliest example of a Warwick Ltd Ed? Dated '89 and it does have an ebony board.
 
Hello warwickhunt!
This Streamer is a LTD model released during the year 1989…
The first LTD model was also a Streamer, released in 1985 for the 5th anniversary of Warwick.

Are there any archive photos/images of the ltd Ed's?
 
I know of the whereabouts of 4 of these 4 string basses (ltd to 100 I believe) but I've never seen or heard of any 5 strings unfortunately!

They do have a very pronounced tone due to the maple/wenge/ebony and the placement of the single pup but it really does cut through any mix and gets you noticed.

I've seen very few of those Streamers, it surely looks cool!

The very few you have seen are probably the four that I know of :lol:

sorry but if this was for the fifth aniversary then it would be 1987. Warwick started in 1982, which makes 2007 the 25th year myself and Warwick.
 
True bro, it is 87 :-) I don't know why I wrote 85 ... A beautiful Streamer with Mirrored P pickups.
 
Thanks for all the kind comments. The bass is pretty cool and sexy, the tone couldn't be considered mellow or that flexible (with one pup basses they rarely are) but what it does, it does well!
