... Being somewhat new here, I'm not sure just what the point of this thread is, but I thought I might as well join in. Besides,I figure any excuse for a picture is a good one, because he looks and sounds so good - ... .

That's the ENTIRE point of the thread, Rebecca.

One question for the Warwick experts, can I order a CS Streamer $$ 6? it would be the same production model (woods/electronics) but with six strings.

Yes,but it would have to ordered as a Streamer LX with $$ pickups,eq & the woods of your choice.

Thanks Humpy, that's exactly what I want, a Streamer LX6 with an ash body and maple neck combined with the $$ pup's/electronics package. Soundwise, will it have a more "traditional" vibe than my LX6?

PS. I love my S. LX6.

Looks/plays/sounds awesome!

 

[humpy thumb]

Just remember to tell them if you want broad neck or non broad neck.

 

[Flaked Beans]

I'll go with the broad neck version this time.

Hey Guys, I've had my Warwick Corvette Standard 6 since 2000, I'm pretty sure it's a 1997 model. It has the bubinga body and full Wenge Neck/Fingerboard.

I'll take a club number while I'm here, but I really need some advice regarding pickups and preamp for this thing. I know it came stock with basslines soapbars and MEC 2 band pre. Shortly before I bought it, it was modified with a Basslines 3 band pre (see additional hole drilled for fourth knob by the bridge).

While the bass doesn't sound bad, it certainly has a limited range of "good" sounds. I'm sure the pickups could be better as well as the preamp and since I have room for 4 knobs, I need to know what options others have used and liked.

I would like the bass to be more "open" sounding, more lows, broader mids and an overall thicker sound. Right now the sound is kind of scooped. The neck pickup doesn't have the low end girth I would expect and the bridge pickup doesn't have the thick midrange sound I would like.

Here are the pics, I need to know what brands and models of pickups would drop in and what some of your experiences with them have been. Same with the preamp, any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for all the help with the long winded question!!!

Help interpreting the Warwick line-up. What the heck is an FNA? What does FNA stand for. Isn't it just a variation on the Corvette? And the FNA Jazzman? Thx....
