[b]Anyone with a Warwick Streamer Stage 1 with MEC´s and ACG/East preamp out there? Or someone who can help?[/b]
How did You install the preamp?
I just bought a used ACG/East EQ 02 preamp, which I want to install in my Warwick Streamer Stage 1 from 1992. It´s pretty easy to follow the instructions from ACG, but need help now, since I can´t get a sound out of the bass. There are som issues that I don´t know how to solve, and that might be the causes that there is no sound:
1. The MEC pickups are active, so they need power. What would you recommend me to do here? Do I need a special kind of wire to make it work? I did connect the red wires from the pickups to the red wire from the battery clip, then connecting these to the preamp, where the power has to go. But, no sound..
2. The Jack socket that somes with the ACG/East preamp does not fit in the hole where the original Warwick jack socket has been (this socket is longer than the ACG/East socket). Plus there are 4 wires on the ACG/East jack socket, but only 2 on the Warwick jack socket. I want to use the Warwick socket (maybe replacing it with a swithcraft), but what to do with the 4 wires, where do they go?
