JR,

If it's currently wired (and designed) for 9 Volts, you run a great risk of damaging the preamp by doubling the applied voltage. I wouldn't attempt this. I'd suggest finding a Warwick preamp that was designed for 18-volt operation and swapping out the old one. Otherwise, you're on thin ice.

IMHO,

I would probably put in an 18V Aguilar preamp, one of the best there is IMO / mats
