Can enyone help me out?
Im looking for D tuner to my mk1. Do i need a whole new tuner? Or is there one that fits the original mk1 schaller tuner? Dont wont to order the wrong thing here. Maby it gets way to neck heavy? so its better to get light tuners and go from there?
Thoughts or d tuner experience?

After ages lurking on this thread I finally got round to ordering a 4 string Mark 2 in February. Am waiting for Paul to tell me he wants money for the neck, but as he quoted me 20 months build time I guess there's no rush. In the end I went for Sycamore facings with an ebony board. Body and neck are both going to be gloss finished. Roll on October 2015.....

Just picked up this 1990 Geddy from WalWarrior, i'd been holding out for a wood Mk1 but could not resist the chance to snag a Pete Stevens! WalFretless5 and ToolMyBass inspired me to take the plunge!

Could anyone point me to a case company that has a compatible hardcase? No luck with Hiscox and Anvil is soooo pricey!

Congrats! I can tell with the pug that he's ecstatic with the new addition to the fam.

There had been discussion about cases earlier in this thread and the last thread but here's one quote:

$249 + shipping. I guess that sounds about right for a decent case.

Price is consistent at the 2 places I could find it in N. America

Thank you so so much! Is that the exact same case that the new Wals ship in??

He loves it, I photograph him with all of the gear I get as a gag but he loves the Wal his tail wags and sniffs it everytime I take it out of the case!
