Update : I now have two PJB 4B cabinets linked to the Walter Woods amp - impressive.
I'm looking for a Wal Pro 1E (preferably) as I sold the one I used to have some 12 years ago to a bass player from the Wakefield area, Mick Close, I think he was called. It was in red and the serial number was PB1151 - anybody seen or heard of it ?
Update: January 2008 - bought PJB Suitcase combo so now have two workable rigs.
I've also found a Wal Pro 1 passive bass - I think I now have everything I ever wanted (except Nigella Lawson).
