    Wal Bass Club.

    If it's just a logo sticker that you want, you could try dropping Mike Forrester a line (facebook.com/ForresterKustoms). He's a luthier here in MD who has worked on some Wals over the years (he fretted my own Mk1 in the summer of 2020), and he was showing me his stash of Wal logo stickers that...

    Wal Bass Club.

    Hi folks, At the risk of asking too personal a question (apologies if so)... I'm curious as to what amount folks are insuring their Wal for these days? Given the pricing craziness that has been happening (particularly over the last year or so - and since Electric Wood paused on taking new...

    1987 Peavy Patriot - what kind of woods?

    Wal Bass Club.

    3,500 Euro is a steal indeed. Nice facings on that one. Here's my own 1987 Olive Ash Mk1, which I just picked up from having frets re-installed this past weekend (it began life fretted, but was fretless when I acquired it at the end of June). After 30 years of wishing, I'm so excited to finally...

    Wal Bass Club.

    I know it's a long shot, but having JUST missed out on that latest Wal Mk1 on Ebay UK this morning, I figured I would reiterate my interest in buying a fretted Mk1 or Mk2 4-string. (Yes, I know they are scarce and others are looking too...) I am ideally hoping to find someone in the U.S...

    Wal Bass Club.

    Hi, Has anyone on here ever bought a USED Wal from the U.K. and had it shipped to the U.S.? Just looking for some information on what's involved, in terms of best practices for a transaction like that, logistics, rough estimate of shipping/insurance costs, as well as import tariffs......? Thanks!

    For Sale FEELER --- Ken Smith BSR4M

    Hi All, I am a fairly new member here (and just joined as a 'supporting member' today), so apologies in advance if I'm doing anything wrong or committing any kind of faux pas. I am thinking of selling my Ken Smith BSR4M, as I'd like to pick up a used Wal. So, this is a 'feeler' to see...
