We just swapped basses. Great and easy transaction between Ireland and Germany. Can only recommend Mick as a fair and friendly business partner.

swapped - thanks a lot Mick!

[quote name='littleal' post='1076958' date='Jan 4 2011, 01:20 AM']It's 1000 for a fretted 6 string neck too, I enquired with paul,[/quote]
I have also considered having Paul build me an additional fretted neck for my Wal six. It really is a point that fretless playing is for home or studio use mostly ...
I think 1000GBP for a fretted six string neck is adequate since most of the construction time goes into it. I think I remember reading on some Wal forum that Pete Stevens also mentioned that.

And there is the point of being able to swap necks without having to worry about playability and bridge setup because of that brilliant neck bolt construction of Wal basses. I once had a 1985 MKI marked fretless with ebony fingerboard and stumbled over a used fretted 1986 Wal MKI rosewood neck for silly money. I swapped the necks without any problems and had two basses in one with two different sound characters without having to adjust or change anything about the setup of the bass - incredible!

jee! keep it and have Paul convert it to a fretted one.

on hold payment pending

Interested in a limited Orange OBC 115 bass cabinet in all black with 400w at 8 ohms anyone?

Yeah the Alembis sounds great.
Though, for the very clean tube sounds I still have the Demeter pre, so I really cannot justify holding on to the Alembic.
Pm responded to.
Cheers

gone to the UK.

had one, too, once. great bass! Swap for a Rickenbacker 4003?
cheers

as soon as I'm rid of my Ricky 4003, which is currently on hold, I'm going to be at your doorstep!
What a wonderful Smith! What's the weight of it, BTW?

Part-trade with a Rickenbacker possible?
cheers
Oliver

possible swap for a nice Ricky 4003? ok, sorry - no trades

what about these ones:

I've got two of them for my heavy Wals - great quality leather straps at a real bargain price!

I'm keeping it.

Just take a look at that guy and what he's getting out of his MKII fretless - incredible

Hard to copy those sounds with a different bass. I love mine and they are worth every cent I paid for them.

bump for the Schallers.

Hi there,

dunno - just make a sensible offer. Paid 60 GBP + shipping for them two years ago. They are old new stock in their original package.

Hi all,

the Ritter straps are all gone now, but I still have that spare new set of [b]Schaller M4S2L 2R Black tuners[/b] from my Wal 4.
The pic shows the chrome version.

already swapped.

[quote name='wombatboter' post='915648' date='Aug 5 2010, 10:21 AM']Must be one of the most beautiful Wals I have ever seen...congratulations[/quote]

Cheers Geert!
Nevertheless, the Wal six fretless has also returned to me after one year and it smmmmokes! Maybe I'm going to have to sell that wonderful LeFay Remington Steele 4 again, since I now have too many fretless basses - know the problem?

Seems the Wal 6 is coming full circle very soon!

[quote name='wombatboter' post='920499' date='Aug 10 2010, 12:37 PM']Sold to the honourable Spiritchaser :-) Thanks Oliver ànd enjoy ...[/quote]

Thanks Geert for the smooth transaction - that LeFay is a work of art and sounds and plays great.
