Standard slot sizes of 4 string bridge and JAN III?

[MatthewJH]

Hey guys,

I want to string my 2010 four string RB Streamer LX to BEAD tuning. However, I've never played with a B string so I need as much time to adjust as I can and we have band rehearsals once a week, so I'd like to do a rehearsal with my current EADG tuning and the next day quickly swap over to BEAD and practice it until I'm good for the next rehearsal.

So, if I need to resize the slots to accommodate them, I want everything ready beforehand so there isn't a hold up.

The BEAD gauges I'm going to go with for now will be 120, 100, 80, 60.

The Streamer LX comes with 45" - 105", are these the maximum sizes of the slots, or is there a little bit of wiggle room?

Do you guys think I'll need to resize them, and if so which ones (only the B string slots, or more than that)?

Thanks

I don't think you need you need to resize the slots, only to change the string action a little bit (probably)

Thanks Florin, that's good to know.

And no problem, I keep my basses setup to specific measurenents, and check it weekly like it's a religion - well, mainly the relief because if that's where it should be than everything else should be as well if the bass is in tune...

This is probably why I like Warwicks so much, as I don't think anyone can touch Warwick in the ease and amount of setup options.
