It is an amazing bass. It's as 'Warwick' sounding as it gets!

I feel the lx has a quicker attack and more punch that a lot of other Warwicks. Been playing it a lot today and I'm not feeling so eager to sell now! Mmmmm?????

Chris2112 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I have to say that was a belter bass. My main instrument from when I was 16 to 18 and I was a fool to let it go! I probably prefer the one I have now as it plays a little better but that may just be setup, they are very consistent basses with excellent playability although I still have my favourites and #1659 is probably the best I've played. It'd be my main bass, although given that it's over 20 years old now it leads a pampered life and sees a few studio sessions a month with the ACG doing most of the leg work! Still, those Ex Factors are IMO the ultimate 1980's slap machines but they are also extremely competant at supportive, groovy stuff too. Just listen to Vail Johnson getting those massive but still incredibly articulate tones out of his when he plays with Kenny G! Active mode 2 on the preamp, for those who don't know!
