funkypenguin Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Here is my Warwick Streamer LX6! Fantastic action, Looks amazing and now loaded with an East U-retro preamp. It has that fantastic warwick growl, but now the preamp has been upgraded it can nail pretty much any sound you can think of. Took me a while to really warm to this bass but now its back from setup and upgrade its one of the best sounding and feeling instruments ive ever played. She will probably be my main instrument for the forseeable future Specs are... 6 String streamer LX bolt on AAA Flame maple body (Bookmatched) 5 piece Wenge Neck Wenge Fretboard 34" Scale 16.5mm spacing Seymour Duncan soapbars East U-Retro Deluxe preamp Ramp Side LEDS [attachment=114472:DSCF0943.JPG] [attachment=114473:DSCF0946.JPG] [attachment=114474:DSCF0947.JPG] [attachment=114475:DSCF0949.JPG] [attachment=114476:DSCF0950.JPG] [attachment=114477:DSCF0951.JPG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eude Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I had a Thumb Bass Bolt On 5er a long time ago. I loved, in fact still love Warwick basses, but they're a little big for me. Having said that, now that they'll do custom 32" and 30" bolt on versions of their basses, if I ever win the lottery, there'll be a couple on my bucket list Eude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee650 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Thats fantastic, many years ago (1998, to be exact) i bought a 4 string LX in exactly the same colour, i still miss that bass to this day, it went all around the world with me and i part exchanged it for a custom colour 90 streamer NT, and it wasnt as good !!!!, i was gutted, i have the east pre in my spector , and its amazing, just as an aside judging from the year of your LX it will have the nice slim wenge neck and not the baseball bat ovangol ones ( like my old streamer jazzman) am i right ?

funkypenguin Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Cheers!! As it happens this bass will be going around the world with me, since im working on cruise ships in the carribean as of the 15th of November! You're spot on, the neck is the old slim profile, its really nice to play. Its one of the more comfortable 6er necks i've had the pleasure to play. The east preamp is one of the best bits of kit ive bought since i started playing bass. For the sound i generally go for (deep and warm with sweet top end) its brilliant, i get this sound with EQ set flat and panned to the neck pickup slightly. The only preamp ive liked as much is the pope preamp that Fodera use Edited September 24, 2012 by funkypenguin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
