Calling all Warwick users!!

1. 2004 FNA Jazzman 5
2. About 2 weeks (I just got it), though I've drooled over them for a few years before finally getting this one.
3. Lots of different flavors of rock, with some bluesy, jazzy influences thrown into the mix
 
1. Corvette standard 5 bubinga, passive. Streamer Stage II, 5 string, acive.
2. Owned the 'Vette for about a year and a half, the Streamer for a couple of months.
3. I've been playing for almost 2 years and I play mainly the blues.

I love the tone and expression of these basses, that Warwick growl! I had a Fender P as well because everyone said that is the standard by which all others are judged, to me they sound thin and weak compared to the fat, tight tone of the 'Wicks, IMHO.
 
My brother gave me a Warwick proline 5string from 92, I knew the bass like to years, and my brother had it around four years, three weeks after I trade it for g&l tribute l2500
my brother was almost down few days. But I'm sold for that bass, I like the tones and wide neck.
I play all kind of music but mostly rock, I'm still learning som genre so Im still trying anykind till I found what I like, I like funky stuff
 
Warwick Streamer Stage One 1988 yr
Warwick Streamer Stage 2 2000 yr
Warwick FNA Jazzman 1999 yr

Each one had a different neck profile and tone.

I prefer the older neck profile compared to the new ones.
It is a matter of taste and preference.
 
1. What Warwick basses have you owned or currently own right now? Thumb BO 5er with the Wenge neck.
2. How long have you been using Warwick basses? 10 years
3. What genre of music do you use your Warwick for? Currently use it in a noise/art/improvisational outfit as well as a blues/funk/rock band with some jamband leanings. Have also used it for "nu metal" but without the midscoop EQ, this was early 2000.
 
I have a blue Dolphin Pro I (4 str. - '91), and a natural Streamer Stage I (6 str.- '92), and I bought them new back then.

As I play all kinds of music, that is what they have been used for. Haven't played them for some years now, as I have been going through a Fender period, and also a Yamaha period.. But I recently took out the old Dolphin and it is amazing to play and spectacular to watch.. - and it is back in the lineup on my electric gigs.
