Broadneck on Streamer Jazzman?

well, the problem is the open pole humbucker and jazz pickups, that are made for the 16mm string spacing on standard basses, and not the 20mm spacing on broadnecks...

in short, pretty much the only pickup options you have on a broadneck bass are the soapbars used on the LX broadneck or the thumb BO BN...

So sure you can get a broadneck streamer with an ash body and a maple top, like the jazzman, but you won't get the jazzman pickup configuration in broadneck...
 
you should be able to get hold of 6-string p style pickups and 6 string j style pickups in the custom shop soon
 
That is, of course, unless you are prepared to go for a different pickup manufacturer. I'm pretty sure you can get a bartolini humbucker in the right size, though it has no open poles.

I think.(?)
 
You just have to find a pickup manufacturer and supply the pickups to Warwick for this.. There are plenty of them around, just depends on whether you want the exposed pole pieces or covered P/ups. Plus be prepared to pay for the extra cost to have different pickups placed into an LX BN or Stage 1 Body.
It'd certainly be a bass that would be slightly different and sweet none the less.
 
Right not it is not possible to have a BN version of the Streamer Jazzman, but I think you should try and take it up with the Custom Shop and see what other options they might have for you.
