Does anyone have a 5 string tuned E-C?
I am thinking about giving that a shot, any reason not too?
I do this on my fretless ACG and it's great. Also added a drop-D tuner just to make up for the low end.

I avoid this problem by not slapping if I can possibly avoid it!I like the red one. Never too fond of the looks of those transparent slap pick guards though. But it can be handy if you do a lot of slapping because the distance from string to body is a lot bigger on Wal basses which can be harder for slap. I got used to it though and it doesn’t bother me when slapping.
Do you notice the transparent thumb rest between the pickups? Never seen that on a Wal before.

Thank you for letting us know about the new pics on the Wal page, do you have a pic of the back of your Zebrano MK2?Was talking to a coworker today who asked why I went to London, and quickly jumped on the opportunity to shill for Wal basses. He noticed that my bass is now being shown off on the site. That's so cool!

There also appears to be a few new Wals on the page.

Thank you! Im collecting pics of Zebrano to send Paul when the time comes for facing selection. Currently one month in the 36 month wait. I have plenty of time to find a favorite so far this is it.
