dude,idk what that piece of plastic is between the neck PU and the neck,but it needs to go.cause THAT THING IS A BEAUTY!!!!! :bassist:
 
Just out of curiousity, I've read that Wal is back in business even though they are only dealing with backorders right now. Anyone know (or want to predict for that matter) when exactly they might start taking new orders?

they're back in buisiness now,so you can try and give it a shot.make sure you have much $$ or be prepared to sell your whole body :p
 
You know, there are WAY too many of you with multiple Wals in your collection. Beautiful, beautiful Wals that aren't getting enough playing time.

I think - in the interest of fairness, etc. - those of you with more than one should pass along some of the joy to those of us less fortunate. Starting with myself, of course...;)
 
Finally, a new lease on life. Exactly one year later since I got it, and posted on pg7. It was a mess when it came to me, and it got it's long overdue overhaul.

I owned the only 5 string white poly Wal made. Seeing these photo's brought back a few good memories!!

What is your body wood, If I remember correctly mine was oak.

Unfortunately no photo's that I can share.

Mine has mahogany core typical of the Custom models, and it has paduak facings.

Are you sure about the only white 5? I saved several pics between the registry, and a UK ebay sale, and there seems to be three there. I'll PM you the pics I have, see if they're yours. -Mike
