Hello, I've been away for a while. Now I'm back and would like to share a little mod that I've recently made to my trusty 1996 4-string Thumb Bolt-on. It was factory built with EMG pick-ups. After 30 years of use I decided to replace its factory electronics for a EMG BQC-Control. I also wanted...

Hey folks, I am selling my Warwick Streamer from 1986. This one comes from the former Warwick factory in Franconia (Eggolsheim). The Streamer was developed due to customer wish of the music store Thomann as a copy from Spector, but definetly sounds different. It has already the typical...

with regrets, once again, I have to let it go .... this 1984 Streamer Paddle Head, n°343.... SOUNDS TERRIFIC EMG pup's and elec, (and a kill switch) every part are genuine, the neck is as thin as my 1964 L serie JB, and I must say it's a real pleasure to play this instrument. It makes you...

Hi there everyone, glad to have joined a board full of Wick lovers. I have a SSI 5 String with stock MEC Soapbars on it and they just don't work for me. I need more output and clarity from the pickups then they provide. Switching between it and my main bass (EMG 35TW) is a big difference, so...

Hello! I'm selling these items, already have an offer for the Thumb 4 but wanted to check here first so it can stay in Europe (the potential buyer is in the USA). Thumb 4, 1991, completely original no issue, functional truss rod, MEC pickups/preamp, good frets... sounds and feels great. Comes...

Hi Guys I have a Corvette Std. which was Factory fitted with Active EMG pick ups : They are a little TOO clinical and top endy for my tastes. I want to get a sound closer to the warmth and grit of my Stage II Streamer which is fitted with Active MEC J/J pickups. Is anyone...

Hi all :D, I love the old warwick streamer bass and i search informations about the EMG preamp who was put on it at beginning. did someone have a wiring diagram of it? i have bought this preamp with the emg pickups from a '84 streamer but i don't know how to connect it with the pots! i...

Selling it for a friend. Made in Germany in 1990, Bubinga/Wengé neck, Bubinga body wings, brass Just-a-nut I, EMGs (original MECs included, don't even know if they works). The new set has been installed years ago but is in very good conditions, no strings wear and the logo is still there. The...

I just wondered, when did warwick stop using EMG's and Batrolini's in their basses and what were the reasons for doing this?

Hey guys, I'm considering buying a streamer stage I through the costum shop. My question: is the standard neck an option (stringspacing 16,5mm)? The Stage I is standard delivered with broadneck if i'm correct. If you look in the pricelist I would think that it's an option (and pretty...

So, I've been trying different MusicMan-style humbuckers in one of my Corvette $$'s... first it was the Seymour Duncan SMB-4D's, then it was the Bartolini MMC's... but up to this point they've all be passive pickups (like the stock MEC's). Next I want to try active EMG's (MMCS), but I wanted to...

EMG BQC preamp - installation/soldering Hi everyone! First of all, I don`t know if this is the right section of th forum, so ifanyone fells it might suit some else section better, feel free to move it. X-mas brought me a nice present, the EMG BQC Control (2 tandem pots, bass/treb and mid...

Hi Guys, Maybe this has been covered before, but maybe someone has an updated view on it. I has the luck to get my hands on an '89 Thumb 4 NT recently - EMGs, 2 band eq. However, I'm not a great fan of EMGs and had already replaced them with MECs on my '87 Streamer NT. On the thumb, I find...

Hi All I'm thinking of fitting EMG PJs to my Fortress and I was wondering if anyone had used them and what you they were like,sounds,build quaiity etc. Cheers Verb

/startrandomthoughts Why did I not try either of these sooner? I just got a Spector Euro 5 (Not LX with alder back, full Flame Maple) The EMGs are aggressive as all hell and fit my band setting excellently, and Aguilar's Pre-amp doesn't just make bass louder, it makes low end fatter...

Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone of you,have ever installed one of these in a thumb bass,and still keeping the original pickups??8:8:

What's the sound and performance differences on these?

Hey guys, I own 1990 Warwick Streamer Stage 1 with EMG's PJ pick ups and Aguiliar OBP 1 electronics. I have this buzz I can't get rid of. I really tried everything from resoldering to shielding, grounding, changing the amps I plug it in... I mean everything. I tried other basses in the same...

Hi I want to change the preamp of my Thumb 6 Bo, I have EMG (3 pots) and SD preamp(4 pots), it's better no to put more hole on my bass so I would like to try EMG's first. The active SD PUsis 100k, the EMG is 25K, is it O.K. to match them together??
