Good. The DR black beauties look great but they does don't sound quite good enough. The G is fairly dead, which I believe is very common with these strings. Stunting my opinion a little on the tone at the moment as I haven't tried any other sets of rounds on it. Sounds fantastic with flats and quarterounds. Bass itself does sound great though, feels good too, although the wider spacing will take a little getting into. Finest pieces of Ovangkol I have seen in the flesh, it's a gorgeous design. I actually couldn't imagine preferring the neck in wenge, which is not something I thought I would say about a Warwick. Also pleasantly light at about 9lb 4oz I have a brass Just a nut III on the way to replace the plastic III that is currently installed. Beyond me how Warwick could ship £4k+ basses and not include the brass nut (this is a 2010 model so the brass III existed), but at least they have fixed that now. Nothing wrong with the plastic, but definitely fancy the brass with the gold hardware/frets Money isn't great at the moment and I spent more on the Dolphin than I wanted to, so I may find myself having to choose between this and the Streamer, but hopefully no rush on that front.

Just bought a cracking Warwick from Col. Alot of negotiating but we got there in the end! Great guy to deal with and would always recommend Cheers buddy!

Which model are we talking? 3001*? 3003*? 3004*? [color=#d3d3d3][size=1]* plus 1000[/size][/color]

Assume he is leaving plenty of room for offers there

Any bets on every single string set on the market being named in this thread? To be honest, re: DR strings, I haven't actually tried the Sunbeams so I may give them a go before writing DR strings off as too expensive

Anything I have tried by DR. They are good strings, but deserve nothing like the price bracket IMO

That is just stunning! Love the wood grain on the pickup, awesome hit me up if you ever fancy selling

I think Warwick basses do vary an awful lot. The ones I have had so far have been from 1984, 1988, 1990 x 2, 2000 and 2006. My least favourite was actually the 2000, which from what you have said is about the age of yours, but yours could be cracking! My favourites are the two 90's (the red streamer as above and a Thumb NT, which I regretfully moved on). The new ones have slimmer necks again and the 2013 models return to Wenge so would really love to try one of those.
