    [quote name='steviedee' post='266161' date='Aug 20 2008, 11:06 AM']Another luthier I spoke seemed to be very reasonable told me you didn't always need to take the top off you can glue the bass but there is always a chance the cracks will reopen, you know considering the bass cost around £25 its a risk I might take, this guys sounded spot on but was really busy and you know I fancy a wee shot on the bass you know how it is :)[/quote]

    Looks like these have come from a school music department.
    The top has to come off that 1/2 size to repair the crack. The wood has shrunk too much to re-glue. It needs a fillet, not filling!
    You are now the "Curator" of two old basses. Don't spoil this instrument by botching it, for the sake of a few quid.

    Hi Phil,
    sorry but Warwicks have never appealed to me.

    cheers

    Thanks for the reply. Sounds perfect (and I'm sure it does) - would a straight swap for a Warwick 4 string $$ be of any interest to you?

    Regards,

    [quote name='ALFIE NOAKES 900' post='265114' date='Aug 19 2008, 12:09 AM']Hi - is the cab still available, and how much would you accept for it? And what's the impedance?
    Regards,
    Phil[/quote]

    Hi Phil,
    the cab is 4ohm

    Pricewise £325

    Nice lot! great price.
    Could be expensive to repair though!

    To repair a crack in the top, the top has to come off!

    I have a mid 19th cent German flatback that had cracks repaired some years ago at a cost of over £800 according to its previous owner.

    This book [u]http://www.henrystrobel.com/booklist.htm#bass[/u] is worth a read, but it costs nearly as much as your bargain trio!

    That lower bout crack needs a proffessional repair, don't bodge it!

    Please try and preserve these old instruments.

    cheers
    Keith

    Wal's...

    [quote name='6stringbassist' post='245325' date='Jul 22 2008, 01:13 PM']Did Wal ever make a 6 string, I'm sure I saw one once in a shop called the Embassy in Mansfield.[/quote]

    Pete introduced the Wal 6 in 1994

    I met him at one of the trade fairs in London and he showed me a photo of a prototype 6string with the new mach 111 body (which was designed for the six, & later built as a five for Laurence Cottle)

    I asked him to make me one, which he did. I took delivery in August 94 and used it as my main bass for about 5 years.

    Thes are great cabs, I built & used a pair of these with EV 15's until recently.
    3/4" chipboard is fine if you want to keep the cost down.

    It's not really for "singing" it's really for "ear training". No, it doesn't make sense to me either :huh:[/quote]
