monster basses. -
I've a lot of love for fretless Wals - just dont have the funds for one!!
beautiful. -

hi,
it's spoken for - in a private sale - at the moment but if it falls through I'll PM ya!
thanx -
really nice.
i was told - when hunting for mine circa 1992 - best ones were pre 1996/97.
I wouldn't trade my 1991 NT 5 Thumb for anything - my 1988 defretted NT4 has EMGs and it's hotter than the 5 string but the 5 is still THE one.
I'd love another NT5 string from 1990/91/92.
dont do it!!! -
-
unfashionable though they may be (at the moment) and having owned a Ray, a 1959 P-bass and still own a 1964 P-bass, my 1990 NT 5 string Thumb blows them all away -
I can get any tone I want from it and it'll never leave me whilst I draw breath - prob same goes for my 1988 NT 4 string -
dont bother with new ones (anything after 2003) go for a 80s/90s Thumb.
nothing compares!!
PS: I dont do metal, Nu or anyway!! -
nice looker - like a budget Wal 5 - any recordings/sound files?
wenge board too...hmmmmmm. -

cheers,

he might still have one, or can make one...

thanks for that.
will contact him if I decide to keep it. -
great review and pix!! happy to see he has gone back to the Thumb (dont we all!!).
I was playing at the Blues Fest every day except Friday and so couldnt get up to see him.
absolute legend - hope I can still manage it when I'm his age! -

thanx for endorsements guys,
it is a nice player.
