Sold and thx for all,

now I'm starting my 5 strings Wal quest.

all PM's repplied

Thx for offers and kind words

- Kev : The pics were taken 2 or 3 weeks ago, before the bass was fully settled last friday by my luthier (adjustement, new strings, cleaning, ... prepared for the sale).
Now there is about 3mm at the 24th fret (it is possible to low more but, with my way of playing, it is not recommended and I'm not thincking that it would be better for playability and sound).

- Happy Jack : I'm in the north west of France in Bretagne / Vannes

more pics and details

For sale (3900euros/3150GBP with today exchange rate) or trade for a Wal 5 strings (+/- cash depending of the Wal bass model and state of the bass).

Extremely rare, full original and official Wal MK2 Geddy Lee transred with the black stripe on the top and back + neck and headstock finish in black.


Specs :
Produced by Pete "The Fish" Stephens himself in may 1993.
- 4 strings
- Very nice Sycomore top and back in transred with black stripe.
- Mahogany core
- Indian Ebony fretboard
- Black laquer coated neck and headstock finish
- Black and gold hardware
- Weight : 4,5kgs/9,9pds on bathroom scale

The bass is in excellent state, exceptional for a 19 years old bass (only 2 very small dings under the backplate and on the elbow cutaway, professionnaly repaired and stopped : non evolutive).
The bass is located in France.
Everything is full original and perfectly functionnal (electronic, trussrod,...)

The sound is great and I'm selling this bass because I'm now playing on 5 strings basses only. The only trade I accept is a [b]5 strings Wal[/b] (+/- cash depending of the Wal Bass Model and of the state of the bass).

Jordi is a very good guy and every deals with him are clean.

Good luck for your sale !

Jordi is a great guy and very trustworthy
