Thanks, yes, great basses. I played it at rehearsal last night and every note is crystal clear. The b string is a thing of beauty!

These are terrific amps. Wonderfully versatile EQ.

OMG this takes me back. It's 1989 aagin and I'm playing my Wal through the exact same rig as my first proper set up! 😍

Still out of work so this is next up for sale. I picked this wonderful bass up in the autumn last year. I love the weight (4.17kg or 9lb 3 oz) and feel of it, and the multiscale neck really evens out the tone and string tension. It has a swamp ash body with a spalted maple top stained a grey colour. The through neck is 5 piece maple and panga panga (wenge relative), with a panga panga fingerboard. The scale length is 34" to 36". I have made the following changes, which have made an already very good bass even better: i) rounded the edges of the nut so they are smooth ii) replaced all the screws in the bridge units iii) removed preamp and pickups and fully shielded the cavities, adding a new earth strip under the bridge iv) installed threaded inserts in the pickup and control cavities, using new threaded bolts throughout v) fitted US Bartolini HR-5.4AP/918 3 band preamp (volume has push/pull active/passive) vi) fitted US Bartolini MK6CBC pickups, using six string version to ensure pickup sensing area was wide enough vii) new black Dunlop straplocks and new black knobs viii) customised chrome/black Hipshot tuners to give a Wal-like style Bass comes with the very nice original hard case. I am firm on £1000 collected from London or NE Hampshire. Happy to ship at insured cost too as I can double box it up.

Taking this conversation to PM, thanks.

Yes it is.

And sold!
