  1. You can find your bass on the Warwick site under Pro Series discontinued models, along with the schematic I linked previously.If all the electrics, apart from the pickups, are Glockenklang, then the Warwick wiring isn't relevant to your bass.
    Warwick usually wire their basses so that the signal comes from the pickups, through the balance pot, onto the PCB on the vol pot, here it is switched either to go through the vol pot to the jack socket(passive mode or more correctly EQ bypass mode) or to the active EQ then back to the vol pot then onto the jack socket.

  2. I have read that Warwick do not recommend a small string to pickup clearance with their $$ pickups, due to the strong magnetic force
    dampening string movement, I wonder if this is the case with your bass, might be worth dropping the pickups to check.
    I have a passive Fortress One 4 string and the output on that was very poor, a common issue with that model, I fitted EMGs and an OBP3.


  3. Having looked at a few pics of the Glockenklang preamp, I think they use an MEC stacked pot on their EQ board and that all the electrics in your bass are Glockenklang.
    The original balance pot is 220K, so it might be worth checking the value on the blend pot.

    Warwick diagram for your bass, not relevant with the current electrics but useful reference.
