    Overdrive and or Distortion pedal for Corvette Std 5

    Have any of you had good luck finding a good pedal for some mild, but gritty overdrive? I am also looking for a more Les Paul heavy distortion deep bass (non eaten by the effect) type sound. I have a sound in my head that I have not been able to duplicate with a pedal, but I think it could...

    Output level seems low on my Corvette Std

    Hi, I'm a new Warwick owner and was just finally able to get the bubinga Corvette Std 6 string I've been lusting after for ages. :) I really like the bass, I have it set up and playing beautifully. Great work, Warwick! I've noticed only one down side - it seems like the output level is really...

    Replacement neck for Streamer STD.

    Hi folks. Have a Streamer Std with a twisted neck. Rather than go for a redress I would prefer to get a new neck. I know it seems like a lot of fuss for a relatively cheap bass, but I have added active electronics to it and it has been a dream to play. It would be a shame to ditch it for...

    Streamer STD vs. Stage Streamers

    I've played my 4st. Streamer STD for more than a year and it's an amazing bass despite being nearly the simpliest and cheapest WW ever made. I can get some nice tones from it with or without EQ. I believe it sounds somewhat like Thumb with low mids raised and high mids cut and somewhere in...

    I Won This Swirly Bubinga Streamer Std.

    The neck was replaced due to original owner over-tightening the truss rod. I'm told the original serial number gets stamped into the new headstock, but the S/N on this is F-126163-06. I didn't think Warwick made Streamer Standards in 2006, and I've never seen a Streamer Std. with a swirly...
