damn I hate all of you wal owners! I want one so badly but I'm a poor starving musician! lol

Geez Otter, I almost missed you. Sorry about that. Another beautiful Wal right there, and it looks great next to your huge TE stack!

You are number 23.

WOOT!

 

[Cebe]

I forgot to mention your beautiful bass. I see that you were fortunate enough to get the dogbone case!

Thx for number. Yes, I was very fortunate even to find this one (not to mention low price) + original wal case.

I figured I should post my own pics of my recently acquired MK-III/5. Translation = I'm a pic whore.

 

[UncleBalsamic]

Very pretty bass mate.

on a totally shallow note... the mark1 one fretless four string to my eye is the best looking bass ever .. and i have thought this sice the early eighties.

im a bit pissed off that geddy lee screwed it up and pushed the prices through the roof and out of my range ..

Beautiful! Is that an early custom with a PB serial and ash body? Very cool.

 

[Duplo42]

I always thought of Wal as one of best looking basses, but...are there any with matching headstock? Sometimes the head looks to plain with darker bodies...

Yes it sure is!

PB.1707 with ash body and mapleneck with walnut strings through the neck.

Nope..

The ones that are painted have MHS often though.

Not many, but there have been a few with headstock veneers of figured maple, sycamore, redwood, etc. that match the body facings. Also, the ones with painted or tinted finishes sometimes get matching headstocks.

I figured I'd let you guys know....


A fretless Wal just went up on Ebay - reasonable starting bid, though I'm sure it will go up fast.

I hope it helps...

I've posted some tracks on my myspace page with me playing my Wal Mark II Fretless 5. It has sycamore facings and I am using just the bridge pickup with eq flat and pick-attack engaged. There are a couple of solos where the sound is quite exposed for Wal sound listening pleasure.

Please excuse the rough nature of the tracks. They were just trial-runs of a couple of compositions and an in-studio improv based on a composed theme.

Hi all,

just wanted to show you my perfect MKII 5 pair (the red one used to be black, the six-string MKIII and the Midi4 are gone). The green one is now a lined fretless (sycamore tops) and sounds incredible. Hopefully, I'm going to get a new all-white 4string MKII in March
happy new year to all the fellow walnuts out there!
