Hard to tell from those images as you can't zoom in. I'm assuming the bass is a '88 which is a transition period where the body wood could have been maple... if it sounds good does it matter? Buy it and if you don't like it I'll swap you for a 1990 maple bodied bass!

Is this body Maple or Anegre ?
Thanks for your comments and help ; I want to try the mapie wenge combination!

I see some flame by the knobs. I'd say it's Maple.

My 86 that I sold. I remember at the time it was because the neck was too thin!
I wish I still had it. Thin neck and all

The tone of the instrument is undeniable

I think that what I love the most about these early Streamer 1 models is the fact that you can see the Wenge neck on the front of the bass ! It creates a lovely visual contrast ! The streamer 2, the Dolphin, and the Thumb and Buzzard all hide the neck with an extra lamination at the front of the instrument. I think the streamer one model is the only model that lets the neck show through the front of the bass . Very cool !

Body will be Cherry (pre 87-88ish) or Maple for post 88(ish) Anegre wasn't a body wood it was used for the stringers up the neck. Maple is a little brighter/focused than Cherry but you'd not be disappointed with either.

nope

anigre was defenitly used as body wood chances are good to find the following body wood in a streamer --> cherry: 84-86, anigre: 86-88, maple 88->

A Buzzard is what I would need ;-)
Maybe a project for next year or so

My kind of Streamer; if anyone sees one with wenge neck and 2 piece bridge, let me know and I'd buy in a snap... or trade for an equal Warwick (soz don't have a Buzzard )!

Epic flame on your '89 @BrusselsBass

Really nice

Here is one more: my Streamer 2 from '90 (MEC PUs)
someone changed the frets (a mystery to me)

So, you say you're into Streamers? No love for Stage I ?
They look great!

Its Afzalea pomelle.

Na, I hate wide spacing and IMO the "sound of wood" is afzalea, bubinga, wenge, ebony and ovangkol. I've never liked the sound of Warwick's made without these woods.
