Kev Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Pics? Any history on the bass, how long have you had it etc? Never seen a white /gold Wal before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 If you're asking three & a half grand for a bass the least potential buyers might expect are some photo's, and quite possibly some more detailed information too..... just sayin'.

[/quote] That MK2 from 2010 is mine - still beating every other Wal I've owned. The offered MKI looks awesome, too. Best of luck with the sale jfader101!

NancyJohnson Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Didn't the FIRST series of Wal have a bigger/squarer headstock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMG456 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I think when the Custom model replaced the Pro Bass, the headstock was reduced in size and was missing the two extra walnut stringers, Some folks (including me) actually prefer the look of the originsl headstock and at first certainly, you could order your Wal Custom with the older style "paddle" headstock. I know of at least two, a matching pair of fretted/ fretless that were ordered that way. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsixties Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Anyone knows what happened with this bass? I was in touch with this guy but no replies since a week ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kulit17 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 don't think anyone knows. your guess is as good as mine, but after being scrutinized on how much this particular bass was originally purchased for by the OP and the OP not providing pics or further details on this bass, it may be safe to say W3457 went into protective custody....such a shame too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Jack Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 The clue is Post #8. Cloudburst spotted something that no one else had spotted, at which point the vendor suddenly dropped off the radar. Might just be a coincidence, of course.

jfader101 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Decided not to sell this. It's a great bass despite the colour. Nothing a bit of gaffer tape can't cover up for a while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
