[quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1419984618' post='2644704'] Looks superb! If only all Thumbs were made like this. [/quote] What, all Thumb basses lightweight, well balanced and tonally flexible?? It would never catch on

Replied. Still available

Lovely in blue!

[quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1419938696' post='2644069'] Fantastically comfortable bass to play, weighs almost nothing! Good luck with the sale Kev [/quote] Cheers bud, the neck is wonderful on this, very much not the baseball bat associated with the period!

Awesome old skool B7K!

Lots of interest but for the moment is still here. Also listed on eBay Trade-wise, I am looking at SS1 or SSII 4 strings. Will consider other trades with cash my way, but ideally a cash sale on this one.

Hands down, nicest looking Shedua Wal I ever did see. Stunning! And a superb price too!

Ah, the pictures!

Up for sale I have the holy grail of Limited edition Warwick, the Dirty Blonde, 4 string version. Limited edition custom shop built Warwick from 2006 in great condition. Comes with original Warwick Hardcase and complete user kit with certificate. A few marks here and there as can be expected for a 8 year old gigging bass, but as you can see from the pictures in gorgeous condition. Stunning Poplar Burl top, incredible Tigerstripe Ebony fingerboard and the bass weighs about 8.5lb. It has been upgraded with the fantastic BRASS Just-A-Nut III from the frankly awful tedur JAN II and is now looks superb.

I'll do this for £1150 shipped to UK, little bit more for EU delivery. Worldwide can be discussed if needed!

Ah, it's back for sale! I have a dirty blonde to sell first, but very much interested in this!

[quote name='Petezzz' timestamp='1419593982' post='2641084'] OK maybe I am mistaken that they all had flat fretboards - anyway I wanted mine a bit more curved. And I found the end result smoother to play. thanks Pete [/quote] So, the radius is more curved than the standard, do you know the measurement? If it was a custom change, maybe it will be written on the inside of the control plate if you don't know it?

Any dings on the neck and fingerboard at all? anything you can feel when playing?

[quote name='Petezzz' timestamp='1419372803' post='2639369'] To answer your question Francesco: All the Wal basses had a flat fretboard which I didn't like so I asked Wal to make the fretboard slightly curved like a Fender. He did a great job and I found it much more intuitive and comfortable to play. [/quote] All the Wals don't have flat fingerboards? Standard is 12" radius I believe? In any case, a solid shedua body is pretty special, stunning instrument!

Replied and sold

I don't know the exact measurement without looking and can't find a measurement online, but it is the larger type hole so should be 11/16?

Last push of the year
