[quote name='BigRedX' post='1147271' date='Mar 2 2011, 03:51 PM']I see you have the pickups covered, but what are you planning to do about the other important bespoke Wal parts namely the pre-amp and the bridge?[/quote]
SGD are in the process of making a pre-amp to the same specs - big thread here >http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f38/won-wal-pickup-ebay-432803/index7.html Failing that, the ACG02 gets pretty close I am told.
And as for the bridge, the hipshot supertone is as close as I can find!> [attachment=73703:vault_ha...upertone.jpg]
I love the look of the Wal, but I just can never see myself affording the price tag, hence why I looked into a clone,mainly for looks,butIf we can come close on tone, then thats a bonus, as I am happy with my tone with my Dean and the pedals I use.
The woods are the same, so..........it should be close!
As I say for me first its the look of the thing!
