Goonieman and Marvin hit the nail on the head for me . . . . . It's about the first fret feeling farther away. This is because the the length of the top horn comes to about level with the 14th fret, whereas on a fender, it's about level with the 12th thus pushing the nut further away on the Warwicks. This is mebbe a plus if you play lots up the dusty end, but of you're used to Fenders, and you don't want to keep looking at the neck, then it can be off putting. I wasn't sure if Streamers were the same so I asked the question here.
Anyway I tried a streamer out at bass direct today. Sounded and played fab but sat on the strap all wrong for me, so I pulled the trigger on a lovely Sandberg Cali VT. well pleased, she's a beaut! Ooh and I added a second Eden EX112 to go with the one I've currently got. Can't wait to gig em tonight :-)
