Yeah "that" tone is what it's all about. I had the exact same conundrum with H stingrays. Pickup was nowhere near where I'm used to but I adapted. Tried HH and rests but just felt weird and I use a floating thumb now. Now that I have a notion on thumbs, its unlikely to pass until I try one 😀

I keep thinking I don't want one then look at pics like that 🤩

Cheers Masty The 5 would be a monster alright. I already have 2 5s so something would have to go

Thats gorgeous

Thanks for all your input lads. Yeah I love my ergonomics (Ibanez SR fanboy) so will try one out in person maybe, play the waiting game. I do love the tone though. Its so characteristic and jumps out every bit as much as a J, P and Ray tone. Albeit it has been overused in the modern metal sense. (Bbbr deng anyone?)

This is pretty cool. Ovangkol neck, not sure fingerboard. https://reverb.com/item/67875793-warwick-lx-streamer-2003-purple-finish

Yeah agreed to all above thanks lads. The playability thing scares me a little into getting a streamer. They sound pretty similar too. Yeah just got a P so maybe ill save.

Hi guys, I have some GAS for a Warwick thumb and have been reading up on different woods years etc. I understand the wenge neck gives that characteristic burp that the Thumb has. https://bassbros.co.uk/product/2003-warwick-thumb-4-bolt-on/ Considering the above, any thoughts? Like the pickup configuration as I'm used to jazz type instruments. Price seems decent and could part ex. Or save up for a "better" one? 90s, GPS, full wenge etc. etc. Going for this vibe minus a string. Any feedback appreciated. If anyone considering selling hit me up Thanks Mick

here you go lads, £600, might post to UK? https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/ibanez-premium-sr2400-bass/1445960702

Me too. Getting pretty rare too.

Recently came to my senses and bought back my SR2400 Its a piece of art and sounds great too

I was concerned about the neck too but was happy out in my L2000. Felt more playable than any P I played (haven't played many to be fair )

Sold my L2000, saw an L2500 on guitarguitar.co.uk and the rest is history. This thing is a monster.

Great idea. Have a Ray SUB and want to do this

How do you find the tone/tension on the 4 string? Quite tempted to get a 4 as I predominantly play 4s
