  1. And the video in question:
  2. I was watching an old Wizzard video when this weirdly modified Jazz Bass turned up on the screen. Looks to me like two slanted Musicmaster pickups in some sort of extreme P-bass configuration coupled to four pots. I can't find any more info on the net, like who made it or maybe more interesting: why! Anyone out there in the know?
  3. [quote name='DavidMcKay' timestamp='1444809360' post='2886147'] For me it is the look. I think they look home made [/quote] In fact Paul lives just a stone's throw away from his workshop so there is some merit to your argument.

  5. I tried them both a couple of weeks ago and they both feel and sound really good, slim necks but not tiny. I do prefer the more expensive one with the AlNiCo-pickups though.
  6. Bought a FEA pedal, perfect transaction on all accounts! Thanks!
  7. Bought a pedal from Kev, friendly and fast just like his playing.
  8. I'm sorry, can't do it. I like it too much.
  9. I had the pleasure to try this bass out at GMR's showroom this spring and it's great. The b-string is among the best ever, totally uniform with the other strings.
  10. Thanks! And I agree, it still sounds undeniably Wal but in a completely different way than the Mk-series.
  11. Thanks! By the way, I'd gladly chip in for a 5-string fretless Mk 2 or 3 otherwise mostly interested in straight swaps, please.
  12. Tjenare! I'm curious too hear what skånska sounds like with a dutch accent, probably the most fricative-heavy combination anywhere.
  13. I truly love this bass, being an ardent fan of Percy Jones and all, however I urgently need a five-string fretless so I'm having a look to see what's out there. It's a 1979 Wal Pro 2 E with and ash body, factory fretless rosewood fingerboard. Classic Wal fat V-shape neck profile. Very recently serviced by Paul at Electric Wood who's given it an extraordinary overhaul so it now plays wonderfully. By far the best fretless I've ever played, all the classic growls are there, incredibly touch sensitive and musical in lack of a better word. Somehow it also makes me play more in tune for some reason. Condition is probably around EX, some typical poly lacquer hairline cracks and two dents on the backside lower bout (pictured). Original case is unfortunately long gone due to literally falling apart, comes with an SKB hardcase in very good nick. Really only looking for fretless 5- (or possibly 6) stringers, preferably with a lined fingerboard. Open to more or less any quality brand. *edit* WITHDRAWN *edit*
  14. And so we bump!
