Is it me or is this not a Warwick Streamer at all.

Im a big fan of the streamer and this just looks fake. The body wood looks like it been makde out of old toilet seats a crappy bridge made out of coat hangers and a pickup made out of (doesnt know lol) just looks like the shape thats it.

what do you think its supposed to look like? warwick does use those pickups on some basses, and the bridge, and whats wrong with the wood?

It's an original streamer I think.
I've seen a few on eBay like that.

It is a german made warwick, back when they did release cheaper variations of the streamer, they came with the single piece bridges like that, cheap nuts, and of course the unsightly horrible mec soapbars, as well as very un exotic woods, they were branded the streamer standard and thats exactly what they were standard basses, they were released in '95 i believe and shortly after they were then discontinued ,fast fprward a few years later and we were graced with the rockbass models, which gave more availibilty of models and finishes, the original "cheap" streamers all featured the W on the headstock as well as on body inputs, and as well all know the new rockbass models do not. They never were expensive and should never be confused with the bigger brother warwicks, but im sure they still play sufficiantly well.
