What's the top on the MK2 four string Mark?

Also, where do you live... and when are you next away from home for a period of time...

Really amazing pair of Wals

[spiritchaser]

fantastic collection Mark!

@ thestick: maybe you're in for a third Wal soon?

and here's a very bad family pic featuring the refinished black MK II, a 1991 MKII fretless and a 1996 MKIII fiver:

They're lovely. If only they made the nut width smaller and made the 4-sting pickups like the 5 string and got rid of those plastic surrounds!

Thx! They are a joy to play.. but you knew that already..

[TrevorR]

The Shedua on my Mk 1 was looking particularly pretty under the lights setting up for church the other week so I thought I'd share...

Yup, two reasons why I sold my MK2.

Stunning bass, that claro walnut one!

[mikeswals]

Guess Wals are a bit cheaper for you guys on that side of the pond after last nights vote...

[mikeswals]

Only a little cheaper. If that violet bass had been paid for today I could have saved $800 dollars.

[spiritchaser]

would love to order another mk2 5 fretless with walnut faces ... unfortunately, not only the pound lost some of its force - the euro, too.
