That's fantastic gilly, thank you so much for the great info! I would love to see some pics with the other Manson basses if you can get them up

Thanks white cloud, I'm well chuffed with it. When I get more time I'll get some sound clips up.

No he couldn't sadly. It has no serial number and no records were kept it has everyone at mansons puzzled! . He does however remember making it though. I purchased it from a chap on gum tree. He said it was a custom made job for the original owner but that's all he knew. But of a mystery bass!

Thanks mate, yeah it's a great player, although the neck is super skinny which is hard to get used too as I'm a stingray man!

@howiebass. It sounds like an absolute beast!

@bass bod Ah, that's good to know. From the sound clips I've heard from wals it's very similar in tone.

Hi all Not long ago I picked up this little beauty, but can t find any information on it what so ever! I have contacted Manson and they never kept any records of the bass, so it can't be dated. Hugh confirmed that he made it, but can't remember when. I'd be greatful for any info. I think the electronics are the same as a wals, I haven't actualy seen a real wal so not sure.

Here we go, my custom Manson with wal pickups. There are no records for this bass, but Hugh Manson can remember building it in the mid 80's. If anyone has any info what so ever I'll be very greatful!

I know this is a very old thread, but I actualy own the Manson bass with wal pickups. I'll get some photos up later. If anyone has any info on this bass I would be very greatful as Manson didn't keep any records for it.
