Is this really a streamer?

i was just asking because truth is... i really am not a fan of streamers ... i thought it was really cheap at first but yeah, it seems this thing could still be cheaper...

im getting a dirty blonde... and after that, id be spending on an amp.

The Dirty Blonde is an awesome bass! I have one of those and love it as much as my Streamer Std. But in my case, they sound and feel night and day different: Thumb Dirty Blonde has Maple neck with Ash/Poplar body - very light and very traditional sounding. Nice old school slap tones! Add to that, mine was de-fretted and is a 4-string. My Streamer Std. is much closer to the standard Warwick growl, due to an Ovengkol neck with Ash/Bubinga body; not real heavy, but not as light as the Dirty Blonde. The other difference is my Streamer Std. is a 5-string fretted, and of course the bridges and pickup configurations...

IMHO, compared to the usual Streamer Std., the Dirty Blonde is a much better bass, but it will costs more and is a LTD. ED., so it justifies being better...

and another reason why i cant wait for my dirty blonde to arrive!

i always love it when forumers share their bass experiences... especially with the one im just waiting to arrive :)
 
Indeed a Streamer STD. Carolena body. Pretty darn light by Warwick standards. Mine has the single pickup. They're nice basses and very easy playing. The bridge is in fact a Warwick bridge.
