How has this not sold?! Bongos are fantastic basses, especially the 6ers!

I just bought the most fantastic bass off Martin. It was exactly as described and he has been a great guy to deal with. Comms were fab and transaction was smooth. A great bass chatter.
Recommended!

I love these basses! Great bass at a fair price. GLWTS.

I have one of these, fantastic little basses! GLWTS.

That's a damn good price on a tidy looking sabre! GLWTS

I purchased another bass from Gary and I met up with him this time to pick it up. Gary's comms were spot on throughout the transaction. He was clear and concise and responded very quickly to my messages.
The bass was better than Gary described, I am absolutely thrilled to bits with it.
Gary is an utter gent and an absolute pleasure to deal with, I couldn't have asked for a smoother transaction.

I love this era of stingray. This is just like my 89 Ray and it's one of my favourate gigging basses. You can get the action stupidly low on these and the sounds massive!

Blimey Gary, you really are selling some very special basses on here! I love my sb1, I can't recomend them enough and Gary's a great guy to deal with. GLWTS buddy.

Wow, bargain! GLWTS!

Wow, lovely bass Gary! GLWTS.

Worth every penny, super basses these! GLWTS

Excellent initiative! Maybe someone who's had their gear stolen?

Great idea, love this act of kindness!

That looks pretty genuine to me; Greg was one of the early Wal team in the Pro model era..

Nice bass by the way!

Thanks man! was it usual for them to sign and date the pro1 body's? I know they do with modern wals.

Cheers guys, thanks so much for your input. She really is a beaut and a fabulous player, so I'm not too bothered either way. I was just really surprised to see the 81 date as I always bellieved it was made in 78 and the chap I purchased it from said it was all origional.

Here are some pics of the bass.

So, today I decided to strip my beloved Wal pro 1 bass to give it a good clean and set it up and I decided to take the pickup out to have a gander. To my surprise the inside body was dated June 81 and was signed by a chap called Greg.
The serial number on the back is P.B1183 which according to the wal data bass says the instrument was made in 1978.
Could this mean that the neck and or neck plate are non origional? Any hep would be great! Many thanks

What a cool looking bass at a nice price! Bump

Wow, this is such a good price for a bass that feels and plays like a top end instrument. What a bargain!
