Due to various tedious household repairs sadly it's time to sell my old Wal Custom. It's been in my family since around March 1982 and is unmodified. It's a fretless 4-string in African walnut with an ebony fingerboard. It's generally in very good condition and plays very well. It has a few small dings and the lacquer has gone cloudy in a few places, which only really shows up in natural light, but considering it's approaching 40 years old it's really nice. The electrics work perfectly and were overhauled by Pete the Fish in around 2003. Serial Number is PB1813, it's signed and dated 2/9/80 by Wal himself and includes the original brown Wal case. Feel free to ask any questions, I can also take more detailed pics of any specific parts. I'm in mid Wales but do travel a fair bit, and I'm asking for £3750. Cheers, Julian

For sale my beautiful natural ash P bass. All original inc pick up, wiring, ashtrays, bridge cover Fender Hard Case Just back from a full health check and set up from Bass Doc up here in Newcastle. Happy for anyone to come and try, take apart and inspect anytime. Based near Hexham, Northumberland. Can ship and buyers risk and expense but kettles always on and there’s a high chance of biscuits if you want to visit. Will add weight and dims when I’m back at home. Not really after and trades but welcome to try.

I'm still here, I just lurk though! I bought this in 2009 direct from Spector as Sound Control had gone bump and there was no UK distro at the time. I was a sponsored artist, hence why I was allowed to have the black hardware on this bass. I actually ordered it in Black Cherry but as it turns out it was more Cherry Red when it arrived, I wasn't bothered. I still remember the smell of the lacquer when I opened the case for the first time. I sold the Tonepump on here and replaced the bass/treble knobs with gromets, I just wanted the pickups into my Bass 400+ and 6x10" Mesa cab and it sounded huge. Growliest thing ever, although it had some really nice low end with the alder back. I used it to record half the songs on our 3rd album, "The Spire of Sins" which got a half-hearted release in 2010/2011. Nailed split/fizzled in 2010 when I started working full time and the drummer Garth had a second kid. I went on to sell all my bass gear and play guitar in The Leviathan with Jim, the guitarist from Nailed - we released an album in 2013 but have fizzled out as our drummer quit playing and our bassist now helms I Saw The World Burn (who I recently played bass for until November of last year). Mass and Garth from Nailed joined Narcotic Death which split up later, and Mass then went on to re-form his band Blasphemer who are still going strong. Garth now plays in Dychosis as well. The first and only gig I ever played with this bass was the Mountains of Death festival in Muotathal, Switzerland on 20th August 2010. That was the last ever Nailed gig. The dent you can see in the case I think is from the flight back to the UK. Here is the bass during our set: If you want links to music, see below: Nailed - A Pure World is a Dead World ( Full Album 2003) (Youtube) Nailed - Hatred, Failure & the Extinction of Mankind 2007 Full Album (Youtube) I haven't got our 3rd album uploaded online yet, I need to get Mass to do it.

It's a mega, mega instrument!

You will regret this. Get a wall hanger. Store it under the floorboards. Make it double as a hat stand. Whatever it takes!
