  1. If I shift my ACG I too will be making an offer !
  2. It's really good ! I had the waza airs and I'm not noticing any difference in sound qaulity (using good headphones). I hated the drift on the waza airs so always disabled ithe spatial thingy anyway. Well worth the money IMHO.

  4. Peach Guitars had sold a black one off recently for £597 ! There are bargains out there !
  5. I've just snagged a used green one for £500 on ebay from a local seller I've bought off before. His basses are usually set up with the lowest action of any I've ever played so dying to get my hands on it tonight.
  6. Which maybe a good thing if I don't actually want the sound of a Wal.😃
  7. Think I'd rather give half of that kind of money to ACG , Shuker or Alpher and have an absolute masterpiece made to my own specification. I guess a lot of the appeal of a Wal is to be seen to be playing one
  8. The bass looks so cool in context. It's a bit of an ugly duckling outside of it ( but I still wish I had mine !)
  9. I sold my mint blueburst one to a work colleague for £100 ( what was I thinking)
  10. Played it through headphones for hours last night and I love it. The sound quality is fabulous and the presets are very usable and sensible - barely any widdly noise filler patches. So intuitive to use - having watched a few youtube vids was enough to show me how to do the things I needed so I didn't look at the manual. It looks amazing too. Good call everybody above !
  11. My short scale Krell - Best bass I have ever owned bar none . Truly a masterpiece.
  12. And reliced guitars. 🤔
  13. Got one coming today to replace my B3N - hope its as good as the reviews say it is.
  14. I picked up one of these for £100 on Saturday. it had black nylon strings on it and it is nuts for the money.
  15. Bought the NYXL's with 2nd December delivery - great call for flagging these.
  16. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134813295744?hash=item1f637fa480:g:Km0AAOSwV3plXJkY Get your offers in !
  17. Any trades / px entertained ?
  18. Love my Schecter C4( in Toxic Venom !)it clanks with the best of them with the green neon DR's. The electrics in it are brilliant too.
  19. I finally got the guitar back today which has been repaired completely invisibly. They did mention the fact that they saw I had sold the guitar and that would have voided my warranty so they did the job as a goodwill gesture so I guess I can't complain, especially as the work which has been carried out was so good. They said it was the humidity in my house which caused the issue ,but I'm still not convinced about this given the numerous guitars and basses stored in the same place for decades with no issues. A happy ending of sorts.😀 I'll buy carbon next time !
  20. Still waiting for an update - emails being ignored . Dreadful customer service. Thet had actually gone to my spam folder - so my fault !
  21. Guitar has gone to Maton's UK distributor who is having it assessed by a luthier in London tomorrow. Fingers crossed they will replace it. 😬
  22. Hi, Thanks for all the replies so far. The photos below show the overhang - I'd say it was about 1mm so you can definitely feel it if you rubbed your finger over it. The joint itself seems to be solid and doesn't get worse if you put pressure on it. In terms of heat / humidity - the guitar is one in a row of guitars/ basses /other instruments kept in cases in a row in my bedroom. Nothing else in decades has ever been affected here. There is an ortega hydra twin neck uke in the same area with no adverse affects. To me instruments would have to endure much harsher environments and changes than this, so if that is what has caused it it wasn't fit for purpose IMHO. The worse thing is it may have always been like this and was only spotted by a pro luthier as part of a set up. The action on the guitar isn't terrible and tonally it sounds great and is flawless other than this.
