Wal Bass Club.

#3,021
Hey. Guys. I was wondering if I...ummmm. If I might join your guys'. Group. I think I'm kind of cool. I have some skills only a few I don't want to threaten some one in the group. Heard girls like guys with skills.


It finally came. I'm in love. I'm still getting familiar with the tone controls. And feel of the bass. Needs my setup. I'm very happy. Yes I do play fretless classical guitar style with a foot stool. And usually set it right when I'm not posing for pictures. W2931. Bass direct described this exactly how it is.

Awesome man!!! Congrats!! Now you got the red one coming too, right? How's it sound with the Walkabout? Been wanting to get one but when i was about to pull the trigger for one last month, the price shot back up at GC :hmm:

I haven't heard it. with it yet i walked into work with a big ass stack of charts I have to fix. I listened to it last night with my big block powerhouse 15 i like it. Its like a heard in my head clarity on the high end without being shrill. I keep the walkabout here at work so when they are doing therapy I run scales exercises etc. The red one is supposed to ship on the 5. I'm nearing the tone I want. The strategy comes out in a month. Either another 15 or a 4x10 and my home rig is done. The attention to detail on this is amazing. Its a work of art. The body conturing, the recessed jack housing, pickups. I'm happy just feel crazy lugging this one to work with me. You mean GC like guitar center.

This one really just sat in a case somewhere in a house its pristine. I'm happy. It is a work of art. Its gonna be good tweaking over the next month or so and getting used to it.

Congrats man, she's a beauty! Don't forget about the tone pots inside the control cavity when you get to tweaking, my volume pot was way down and it came alive when I turned it up.

Anyway, I'm not sure how many Greg Edwards/Failure fans are about, but I caught a look at an interesting Wal this evening. It looks like they were filming the show for TV and Greg was performing guitar duties at the moment, but there is an excellent shot of a silver Wal around the 1:24 mark. I think it even has a matching headstock, too.

Greg is the guy that turned Justin Chancellor onto Wal. And the rumor is, that's the bass Justin used to record Aenima with.

That's a very nice one. Congrats. There is something very classic and comfortable about the MkI body shape.
