    Sadly, there's no official admin taking care of that site - I contacted the ones responsible - hope they react quickly now. Seems there are some more trying to scam people - always New Members with high end basses and low prices ... take a look at that Alembic for instance ... seems fishy too...

    Hi dear Wal fellows - thought I'd chime in here to shine some light on the issue. Yep this a*****e has obviously somehow hacked the email account of the last buyer of my Wal and blatantly used my pics and video clip to scam people worldwide. I'm so happy we're that connected and take care...

    Hi all, haven't been around here for quite a while and I can say that my Spanish Cedar fullbodied MK2 4 from 2010 weighs in at 4.4kgs.

    Kulit - that was mine years ago. It had been a poly black one and I had decided to have it refinished in trans red. Great bass, but still a tad over 5 kgs and some head dive, too. I now have a MK3 5 w/ wenge facings at only 4.5 kgs

    Hi Oli, my white MKII has a full spanish cedar body - it sounds slightly scooped compared to my other standard bodied Wals - more low mid growl. But this could also be due to the maccassar fingerboard and the white poly coating, too. The bass weighs in at 4.4 kgs. Greetings from Germany Oliver

    Hi all, great to see so much activity on this forum! Looking forward to my MK I fretless due March 2014. I play my Wals through a TE AH1200 with a new Mesa PH 2x12 and two Mesa Diesel 1x15" (the ones featuring those killer EV 400w/8 ohms speakers) and using an Alembic 1FX as additional...

    Hi fellow walnuts! Here's my latest acquisition: a Wal MKII 5 from 1995. It featured a slightly warped fretted rosewood board and I had it turn into a fretless at Bassline Basses Krefeld/Germany by master luthier Rüdiger Ziesemann: Invalid Link Removed He put an old, gorgeous-looking...
