Warwick Streamer LX 4 string V's Streamer Stage I ?

[Angus Blair]

Hello, I was wondering if there were any opinions out there on actual tone and playability differences between Warwick's Streamer LX 4 string and Their neck through body Streamer Stage 1? Trying to decide which one to buy, I'm a lefty so not able to try any out in stores etc... Also has anyone got and played on the Warwick Streamer $$ ?
I will be just using this bass for recording, so wanted something that has lots of tones but also just a lovely feel. Please let me know any thoughts. Thank you!

I have not played a S1 Streamer but I do own a 4LX. From what I know the difference between bolt on and neck through is subjective, although I'd like to own a S1 eventually, as I love my 4LX so much that why not have a neck through version too? I recently moved from a Rick 4003 to the Streamer LX4 and as much as I loved the Ricky I cannot deny that the contoured body and slick neck of the Streamer (whether its neck through or not) is kind of... sensual in a way I have not really encountered in any other bass, it literally hugs my gut. The stock P/J 2 band MEC pickup/preamp combo is pretty hot but you can keep things under control when recording, just something to consider. Also if you are a smaller person the body size is very nice.

I had the choice between a nearly identical $$ Streamer and an LX, bought the LX on a whim and I love it, very versatile.
