WARWICK | ADAM CLAYTON CUSTOM STREAMER CV
Warwick introduced the Streamer CV - Classic Vintage - bass
at NAMM 2013. Now Adam Clayton ordered his own Custom Shop Streamer CV according to his personal needs.
This bass comes with a Swamp Ash body, a one-piece-maple neck and a maple fingerboard
with a 9 1/2" radius equipped with Mother-of-pearl inlays.
Adam Clayton's Streamer CV is fired with passive Seymour Duncan SPB-3 pickups combined with passive MEC
electronics.
Matching with the
beautiful Gold Solid Finish, Warwick dressed this Custom Shop Streamer with a white pearl celluloid pickguard.
WARWICK | STREAMER LX | GOLD SPARKLE
From Warwick:
Ash body, flamed
maple neck and fingerboard, non-adjustable Nut, block inlays, matching headstock, Seymour Duncan antiquity II pickups, fully
passive. The neck is a custom shape, so this is our “jazz bass”…. Really cool piece.

| Tone Hammer 500 |
Known for his big, warm tone, Adam was drawn to his new rig because, despite its
lightweight, it delivers a full, punchy sound.
“We are incredibly excited to have Adam playing through our Tone Hammer ®500
head and SL 112 cabinets,” comments Dale Titus, Aguilar Amplification’s Sales & Marketing Manager.
On U2’s recent 3-year U2360° World Tour Adam was backed up by a full complement
of Aguilar DB 751 heads and an impressive wall of Aguilar cabinets, bringing Aguilar’s sound to over 50 countries.
“To have Adam now playing through our Tone Hammer ® 500 is further validation
that even though it only weighs four pounds,” adds Dale Titus, “the Tone Hammer ® 500 provides a massive
sonic experience.

| 'Will Lee' model |
It seems that Adam Clayton is still in search of the perfect bass. While he has a great number of fine vintage and new bass
guitars, he has recently enlisted the skills of Sandowsky Guitars Ltd to make 4-bass guitars (thus far) for him.
Here's what Dallas Schoo (Edge's longtime guitar tech) had to say about the new
bass guitars:
"Just a heads up on how wonderful your 4 basses are....beautiful instruments and so much "weight" and deep tone with
a very light weight bass......amazing. The Will Lee is killer and the PJs so balanced. Adam
has been tracking away and not having to break the momentum dialing in his sound.....Just a very good marriage of effortless
tone that seems inherent with the overall design. The entire band and the production team could not be happier".
Nice
one,
Dallas Schoo/U2
