I've not seen a walnut one before. That pic looks like a retouched grey one - I nearly bought one awhile back. They're nice, but to make them super nice you'd need to put in some better pups. I think someone else on here says that suffer from neck dive a bit.

Neck dive? I'm not surprised as agathis is a very light wood.

Walnut's been an option for a while on the 'P-Bass Special'. One like this for £189 from Soundslive - less if you go for black or Candy Apple Red from other stores like Dawsons, etc.

I bought one about 2 months ago and they are light, punchy and excellent value for money.

Don't understand the neck dive comment, mine doesn't...

Ah but that's not the WN bass, that' looks like the grey coloured one with an alder body whereas mine is basswood or agathis?
