A bass with that Warwick growl

Warwick RockBass Streamer LX 4 Solid Black, bass guitar

The Warwick RockBass Streamer LX 4 SBHP, with its classic curved design and arched top, really is an eyecatching instrument. The two-piece body, finished here in sleek, sharp Solid Black, is made of solid carolina wood, a type of pine that delivers a resonant sound characterized by a very punchy dynamism, while also being very lightweight. Its bolt-on maple neck – reinforced with ekanga veneer stringers – further anchors the sound with assertive midrange frequencies, a crucial part of the typical growling sound associated with Warwick basses. This unique musical character is brought into sharp focus by the reverse-P configuration of the passive P-style split coil, with the passive J-style pickup providing a rich bass foundation. The Streamer ships with Warwick's high-quality RockBag.

Adjustable action, plenty of punch

The Warwick RB Streamer LX 4 SB HP is a luxury bass (hence the LX) at an affordable price. For starters, its full 34" scale length (864 mm) really packs a punch worth playing with. The high-quality wenge fingerboard, here with 24 frets, ensures the sound is articulate and well-defined from bottom to top. Then, the classic sound of the Streamer's passive pickups can be smoothly blended using the balance control: On top of that, the active 2-band EQ lets bassists not only cut but also actively boost both bass and treble frequencies. And value for money is guaranteed across the board, with chrome hardware and hard-wearing frets that are built to last, providing enduring resistance to wear and corrosion – for years of reliable play. The break-proof Just-a-Nut III nut is made from the heavy-duty synthetic material tedur and is fully height-adjustable – just like the two-piece Warwick 3D Bridge. All this means that musicians of all kinds can dial in their string action with pinpoint accuracy.

Adaptability from A to Z

What do ambitious beginners looking to keep their options wide open and more experienced players who know exactly what they want have in common? The Warwick RB Streamer LX 4 SB HP has got them covered. Whether they're laying down tracks in the studio or hitting the stage, this bass is ready to go. With its combination of P-style and J-style pickups and its active EQ, it's a versatile workhorse that'll fit right into a wide range of genres. Sure, the RB stands for RockBass, and it definitely delivers that punchy, powerful Rock tone – but its snappy response also makes it a great fit for Funk, while its strong midrange presence will help it cut through even the densest Metal mixes. Finally, a heads-up for newcomers: The classic long scale length might feel more comfortable for players with larger hands.

About Warwick

Based in Markneukirchen, Saxony, Warwick, initially a manufacturer of premium basses, is known today for providing a wide range of music equipment in all sectors of the industry. The product range extends from bass guitars, bass amplifiers and cabinets (in all price brackets), bass strings and accessories, to effects units. In addition to this core business, the Warwick Distribution sales company offers almost everything that bass players, whether of four, six or even more string instruments, could require. Among them are the instruments of the Framus brand, which are remarkable for their consistently high quality. In addition to its headquarters in Markneukirchen, Warwick also has locations in Nashville and Shanghai.

Sharp in the mix, easy on the shoulders

The Warwick RB Streamer LX 4 SB HP gives bassists plenty of ways to shape their instrument's punchy, present tone, thanks to its blend control and active EQ; this makes it ideal for studio recordings. Equally though, it's ready for the stage in every way: The reinforced neck construction and built-in security locks make it a rock-solid live companion – perfect for stress-free gigs in clubs, at open airs, or out on tour. And with the lightweight tonewoods keeping the overall weight down to just 3.8kg, this long-scale bass is a godsend for players who want to get through long sets without shoulder strains or back pains. Plus, its rugged build will handle the knocks of regular transport and ever-changing venues without ever complaining.

In the spotlight

Reverse P-style Pickups

Warwick's reverse P-style pickup configuration flips the positions of the pickup element for the lower E and A strings and the one for the higher D and G strings. This seemingly minor adjustment takes advantage of the subtle tonal differences between the two halves of the pickup. The result is that the higher strings get a rounder, fuller tone, while the lower strings gain a bit more bite and aggression. It's this unique setup that helps give many Warwick basses the signature growl they're so famous for.

Thank you Thomann :)

Spitzen Handling und viel Sound

Matzze 27.11.2020

Ich nutze den Streamer LX 4 SB HP für Indy-Rock im Homerecording und im Proberaum. Von daher benötige ich ein breites Spektrum an Klangmöglichkeiten für meine Plek-Spieltechniken, ohne zu viel an Effekten nutzen zu müssen. Bisher hatte ich Bässe der "erschwinglichen Einsteigerklasse" von Cort und Epiphone gespielt.

Dank der gut ansprechenden aktiven Klangsteuerung ist von "samtweich und tragend" bis "hämmernd knochig" alles drin (besonders positiv ist dabei die leichte Einrastorientierung auf den Mittelpositionen). Die sehr schlanke Halsform und das vergleichsweise geringe Gewicht ermöglichen lange Übungs- und Probeintervalle.

Negativ fällt auf, dass aufgrund der leicht schnarrenden E- und A-Seite ein Nachjustieren für die mitlerren Lagen nötig ist. Außerdem fehlte die Vorabinfo, dass die Bassgitarre inklussive einer einfachen Tragetasche geliefert wird.

Insgesamt ist der Streamer LX 4 SB HP ein spitzen Musikinstrument, der super klingt und sich super anfühlt.
