    Wal Bass Club.

    Excellent video, great playing, and the bass sounds amazing! If you're ever inspired to make another video with one of your Wal's, could you maybe give more demonstration of the different tones you can get from the filter pre-amp, and PLEASE include a good demonstration of the pick-attack...

    Won the Wal pickup on ebay!!!

    By the way David, once these are available to purchase from your website, will there be a discount code for us forum members that we can enter at checkout? Maybe we can call it the "Patiently Waiting Discount"? :)

    Works for me! My plan was to buy the pickups but wait for the pre-amp to install everything together anyway!

    OK, forget the semantics of what is late July.... I will be very happy if I can go on David's web site, hear sound clips, and order 2 Wal clone pickups "the morning of August 1st, 2012".

    Hey bassbo2112, you have my sincere apologies, I really didn't mean to hi-jack your thread like this. No hard feelings I hope! :)

    My new Warmoth P Bass

    Thank you very much joeyl, although I've come to the conclusion there is probably nothing Warmoth will be willing to do to make this right, it would still be nice to get a proper explanation. I don't remember the guy's name, but when I called Warmoth the guy who talked to me was one of their...

    My new Warmoth P Bass

    To joeyl and makaspar, I appreciate your feedback. However, I've been playing bass for many years and have owned many bass guitars, multiple fenders, a rickenbacker, a couple warwicks, and not one of them ever needed a shim put in the neck pocket to get proper clean and low action. And again...

    My new Warmoth P Bass

    I just happen to come across your post and thought I would tell of my experience and see if anyone else has had the same problem... I just finished a Warmoth bass build, actually the guy that put it together for me has been a professional luthier for 30 years. It seems Warmoth planes a natural...

    Won the Wal pickup on ebay!!!

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe some of the very early Wal basses, the Pro I & II series were passive models? And I don't believe there was any change to the pickup in later years when they developed their pre-amp. Personally, although due to it's unique design the Wal pickups do...

    Won the Wal pickup on ebay!!!

    I don't want to side track this subject, but thought I would throw in my 2 cents on how much difference wood makes... I also play drums and own 3 Tama Starclassic kits, all are built with same hoops and hardware, I use the same drum heads on all the kits, and except for a few drums they are all...

    Won the Wal pickup on ebay!!!

    All I can say about this post is that David is under no obligation to produce these pickups, I don't recall anyone on this forum offering to fund his efforts? And on the reverse side, no one is obligated to wait and purchase these pickups from him either. Personally, as much as I would...

    :eek:What! No radio interference like the original? Not sure I'll want it now. :rollno: LOL!!! Thanks for the update, and glad to hear things are going well, and even more glad to hear your taking the time and finding the resources to make this right! As impatient as some of us can be...

    Just wondering how the Wal pickups (and pre-amp) are coming along? Haven't seen or heard anything happening on here in a few weeks?
