Re: X-33 on the way
I'm exhausted. The guitar arrived, reviews another day, but for now I'll say I'm pleased. Strings a touch light for me, but intonation is almost right (high E a bit flat) -- very responsive to...

So I'm slow -- it just now occurred to me that the X Series ceased production FIVE YEARS AGO. Maybe the Forum Mods could look into creating a new section for each Series as it's about to be...

Lest I be remiss --If you like what I'm sayin', but you're more in the market for an h-h, & want a thru-body hardtail, then keep an eye open for the X-30. These wander past for $250 & less.

hello Tony.. i have the same model X-33 in black... chose it because it's MiK, the Tobacco burst was MiI. just prefer Korean made, the neck is chunky and the bridge looks like it is Wilkinson.Here is...

Nice!! And the bit about the TS being MII is interesting.As I say in another thread, if the Epiphone prefix listing does indeed apply a little to Washburns, the "N" prefix might mean these were made by...

Hello Tony, I am not sure all black X-33 are made in Korea and Tobacco burst are from Indonesia.. It just so happens that the eBay seller I got it from had 2 X-series.. X-33 guitars. He told me the...

I have a small collection of amps, but I bought the X-33 intending it to eventually go oinstage with a feisty little Fender "Princeton 65" -- no, NOT a "Princeton Reverb," which is a 15-watt thousand...

Yah, that "german" belly cut is the giveaway -- X-40, not the current X40PRO. Made like 2002-2008, but the quilt top suggests 2005-8. And since the "X" inlay disappeared from the series by the Winter...

Thanks for the awesome reply! I'm thinking seriously about buying this thing! How would you compare it to an Ibanez Rg 350 or other similar ibanez? I heard RG's tend to be a little too screamy with...

I think that's a Washburn Wl-16-G-15 from the idol series, apaprently not many were made
View ArticleRe: Anyone got any info on this?
Not an Idol, definitely an X. The "Anarchy Graphic Series" -- the "16" suffix appears to indicate recipients of graphic treatment -- was announced late 2005, to include two each of X-16, WI-16, &...
View ArticleWashburn X-40 vs Ibanez RG?
How would a 2005 or 2006 Washburn X-40 compare to an Ibanez RG350? Or what would be the closest Ibanez to the X-40? I'm looking to swapping the pickups on either of them, how would an X-40 react to this?

Seems like most players who post online just hate ANY Washburn-branded pickups -- few bother to mention they like them, & I've never seen much outright love. I doubt you'd get any guff if you...

As an RG player (heavily heavily modded), it sits about 12 guitars in front of any of my electric Washburns for stage use and I've used it on a few recordings... such a fast neck. I love the build of...
