Is this a Vintage?
-
Only you can decide. I suspect that the fact you feel you have to ask the question shows you really don't want to do it. Remember that every gig, every song, every single note is a fun learning challenge if that is the way you choose to approach it. -
Thanks Rob. Pass my regards on to Paul and the ever helpful Philip while you are there.

The replacement body for my 1988 MK1 is almost ready. It was originally black poly and I will get around to sharing the full story soon.

A massive thank you from me for the great work and generous share.

Sorry I just looked at Louise's website and see that she isn't currently taking on new pupils. Danusia Zaremba would be an excellent alternative. You will find her on FB etc by googling. Easy to find as her name is unique.

Hello right back at you from Glasgow-ish.
-
I am sitting watching the countdown for Glasgow tickets.

These guys are great and would be a real treat for a drummer to play with.
-
One of my bucket list basses. I hate being left handed. -
I am reading a theory book at the moment which states that detached is staccato.
-
I have been watching them avidly. Great personality and player.
-
I loved listening to your performances on YouTube. Fantastic.

A 6 string Wal is my current obsession.

My Wal restoration project has taken an interesting turn. [url="https://flic.kr/p/PH4Cdr"][/url][url="https://flic.kr/p/PH4Cdr"]robertson birdseye[/url] by [url="https://www.flickr.com/photos/133023872@N03/"]John Robertson[/url], on Flickr

I gave this bass serious thought but the fretless to fretted conversion put me off.
-
I have this amp and thought this video was a particularly poor demonstration where they didn't seem to understands the basics of its controls and operations. It seemed to me to be just random noodling and sweeping of the controls.
-
This was a great watch. Such an incredible musician. He inspired me to spend the day playing piano.
-
Never be a cog in someone else's machine. If you are a bass player in a band make sure to get involved in songwriting otherwise when the record deal comes around you suddenly become hired help and not on the contract.
-
Here's my Wal packed up ready to ship back for a refinish and service after 28 years of hard playing. It was originally all black and I had it stripped in the 90s. I can't wait to have it back to its former glory. [attachment=231306:IMG_1524.JPG]

Everything about them looks good and at a reasonable price. However, I just could not live with the headstock with or without the name of one of my favourite bass players on it.
-
Have you raised your pickups recently? I had similar intonation issues with my bass which was resolved by lowering the pickups slightly.
-
I am sending my Wal back for a service and need a courier who can insure to full value if anyone has any recommendations. I did try UPS who claim to insure packages up to £5K but the small print excludes guitars which can only be insured up to a maximum of £1K. Thanks John

I have the 210 and it is my 'forever' cab. Small, light, loud and beautifully made.
