SOLD (subject to payment) - Wal mk3 6 string (fretted) - immaculate, 11 months old, as new - £2700

[lozbass]

For sale, Wal Mk3 with beautifully figured walnut facings. Less than a year old. Fretted ebony board (fretted by Martin at the Gallery - stunning job). The bass is staggeringly good in every respect, I just don't need a six. 16.7mm spacing and really easy to play. 34 inch scale. Commissioned by littleal - his original ad is here (hope this is OK Al!)

Collection from central Manchester or shipping at cost (to UK, most of Europe, and the US).

I'm not going to give this the hard sell, everybody with an interest will know what it is and does. Entirely immaculate apart from a small, shallow, smooth rub (about 3mm long and 1mm deep) on the edge of the bridge pickup cover under the B - easily sorted if you could be bothered - it would take ages to find it if you didn't know.

Currently strung (very recently) with D'addario nickel rounds - very low action and extraordinary playability...well, if you can play a six.

Price is a firm £2700 plus shipping (this bass cost £4200 eleven months ago).

Any questions, please just ask. Images below but let me know if you need anything specific - it's worth a look at post 235 in the Gear Porn section (Wals) - video of littleal making the bass sound like a musical instrument (something that I've been unable to achieve).

Just out of curiosity, what does it weigh ?

[littleal]

Oh man!
I would have that back in a shot if I had the cash,

Good luck with the sale Lawrence, I really miss this bass & my band mates still havn't forgiven me for selling it,
Lawrence is a no1 guy to deal with & that is so much bass for the money,

[lozbass]

soliloquy - thanks for this - I'm afraid that I don't have accurate scales but the bass is around 9 to 9.5lbs I think - it's actually a surprisingly compact bass and feels very comfortable either sitting or standing

Littleal - thanks very much for the kind words and entirely mutual. I'd love this to come back to you (I've seen the video!)

I've been checking shipping prices - this may be of interest to some. Shipping to France or Germany is likely to be around €35-40 for a 1-3 day service with DHL (excluding insurance - maybe add €35-40 for insurance to full value). Shipping within the UK is around £20-25 for a next day or two-day service (again, excluding insurance). I hope this helps but let me know if you need anything more
