While I'm here I'll say "Hi" and introduce my two babies... A 1983 Mk 1 and a 1979 Pro IIE

[quote name='PJS' timestamp='1435895652' post='2813383'] That's an incredible-looking bass! Very nice!! I must remember that mine will arrive some day. I am puzzled by one thing that you mentioned, as a general question: I wonder how they manage to keep the doors open if they only roll out 2-3 basses per month, while supporting two employees? I'm guessing that the rent must be quite affordable. [/quote] Paul and the guys also do all the workshop stuff for Charlie Chandler's place in Hampton so that probably offsets the costs of the (pretty modest if picturesque) accommodation. And, yes, WOW that violet stain is something special!

It is definitely a Rob Armstrong bass. The shape of the headstock is a giveaway... He used that shape on a load of Gordon Giltrap's 6 strings with the mother of pearl A logo check out hte pics on this website for a clearer view - [url="http://www.mikechant.co.uk/instruments.html"]http://www.mikechant.co.uk/instruments.html[/url]

Hi, just joined. Been playing bass for about 30 years now (gulp). A mix of folky stuff back in my college days plus a bluffed my way through a couple of rock operas. Tehn mostly playing at church and until recently in a general rock/pop cover band. Long time fan of Wal basses and am lucky enough to own a couple. My bass gear list is as follows... [list] [*]1983 Mk 1 Custom Series Wal [*]1979 Wal Pro IIE [*]1981 Aria SB700 (my first ever bass) [*]A Frankenjazz built around a "Signature" jazz bass body and neck I got off eBay [/list][list] [*]A hand built custom acoustic bass by the Welsh luthier, Tony Revell [*]Faith Neptune Titan acoustic bass [/list][list] [*]Markbass Little Mark II [*]Markbass 2x10 Traveler cab [*]Markbass 1x15 Traveler cab [/list] If you're interested in Wal basses I have a blog which charts the history of the make here...
