Help Warwick and Ibanzez bass

Hello everybody. I have a question about bass modificaions. I currently play a left handed Warwick 4 string Thumb Bass and absolutely love the sound it gives me. I recently bought an Ibanez SR596 6 string and love the way it plays. Are there any electronic modifications or hardware modifications anybody would recomend to bring the Ibanzez sound closer to that of the Warwick?
 
I dont think you'll ever get the exact Thumb sound, it's just a very peculiar instrument. Woods (bubinga / wenge), pickup positions, the electronic is active, and modelled on the EMGs.

Maybe you can try with that, although I don't think it will make that much of a difference.
