  1. Now that's great news indeed!
  2. Hey, Oliver, where are you located? Somewhere close to me (Karlsruhe)? I´d love to check some other Walbasses :-) Hi Jens, I'm in Essen, NRW. Should take you some time to get here tc Oliver
  3. That's right - I got it and it's a real Killer! Hi there WombatBOTER (see, I'm still able to learn ), cheers again for the great day at your place! I just say funky fingers ... Couldn't help but attaching a picture ... In the meantime I've purchased an E-MU Proteus 2000 and now the WAL has become a real orchestra. There really are limitless possibilities, and even without the MIDI this one sounds (and looks) awsome - a great player. Two miliseconds of MIDI latency - two miliseconds! If you're into the MIDI WAL world check out this great player I found on the www by chance: [url="http://www.4barmusic.co.uk/pages/midihigh.htm"]http://www.4barmusic.co.uk/pages/midihigh.htm[/url] I know that only about 100 of these killer basses were built by Pete, so the search will be a tough (and an expensive) one. Best of luck to you!

I got the price back which I paid for it so I didn't want to make any profit also.. Sorry that you didn't get it..[/quote]
  4. Hallo Jens, endlich noch ein deutscher Walnut auf'm basschat U.K. Welcome! Oliver
  5. [size=5][font="Arial Black"]Sorry for having caused any confusions, but it is only the NECK I'm selling![/font][/size] [quote name='spiritchaser' post='231269' date='Jul 2 2008, 01:55 PM']Hi all, It's still available: just got a 1982 fretted neck for my lined fretless 1985 MK I and it fits like a glove. Since I already have a great fretless tone with my Hybrid-WAL and its 1979 pro I fretless neck, I'm selling my spare, original lined-fretless neck with chrome Schaller tuners (but without the string-retainers, for I need them now for the fretted neck), signed by Pete himself in October 1985. I'm asking 400 English pounds or 520 Euro plus shipping which I reckon a reasonable price for an almost unplayed WAL-neck in showroom condition which would cost 600 English pounds new. A great opportunity for the "swapping studio bass-player". I'm in Germany, international shipping is welcome, but there may be additional customs duties to be payed. Anyone interested?

  6. [quote name='spiritchaser' post='231799' date='Jul 3 2008, 10:52 AM']Hello & thanks for the tip. I already posted it on the walbassesnaturally forum, but since last Thursday I have been having problems with posting at all there - the Yahoo customer service is still trying to fix it. [/quote] It's still available! tc Oliver
  7. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='231706' date='Jul 3 2008, 01:28 AM']As well as here, it may help you achieve a sale quickly if you post it on the Wal forum here: [url="http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/walbassesnaturally/"]http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/walbassesnaturally/[/url] Good luck with it![/quote] Hello & thanks for the tip.

  9. WAL basses - either my MK I 1985, my MK II fiver 1987, or my customized fretless hybrid-WAL with the 1979 neck. Sometimes, for some rough tunes, I use my customized 1997 Stingray. Incredible tonal spectrum.
  10. These WALs are plain killer basses. My MK I is a lined fretless and there is a custom made with buckeyed burl tops I made myself with the help of my wife and a German master bass luthier. Enjoy them! Oliver Here are mine:
