I want to sell my [b]WAL Bass[/b]. It´s a fretless (lined).

[list]
[/list]Brazilian Mahagony Core, Schedua Faces (flamed), Indian Ebony with maple inlays.
Aktive electronic with pull/push switches
It is the [b]W 2114 [/b]from [b]May 1983 [/b] of the Ian Waller time, MK1 custom series. 21 lined frets.
WAL Case.
I bought my WAL used 19 years ago. Only 10 times at stage, since 10 years 1h per week.
I live in Germany in - home of the beer city - Munich, so we have to discuss shipping.

I don´t have to sell my lovely WAL, so I intend to give him in reasonable hands.

My price idea: That´s difficult. I hoped somebody will suggest something. We have here a fine homepage from switzerland (bassic.ch) and somebody sold a wal fretless 4 string (at ebay.co.uk!) for EUR 3.000 in less than 24 hours. If this is true I would be stupid to give the WAL for € 2000. Pound/Dollar to EURO is a big problem. 15 years ago I was in San Diego and was interestet in a Sadowsky Bass. Due to exchange reason the sadowsky were twice as expensive they are now. I don´t know the condition of the sold € 3.000 Bass, maybe it was a brilliant one. Prices from talkbass for sale basses are between EUR 2800 - 3.600, wal basses sold in ebay - us can reach up to USD 7.000 (EUR 4.500).

Price: EUR 3.000,--. I don't want a bid battle, than I could give it to ebay. There is a bid in this region. If someone is a bassplayer an want to pay more, feel free to email. I prefer (due to handling) a buyer from the EU.

My first though, but he's selling a Wal, and they are beautiful...and rare! Though I'm not one for picking on new people, everyone has to start somewhere!

Ah, no, looking closer it's not the same bass

:huh:[/quote]

Phew, I thought that was just me! :)

I really don't understand the problem with people doing this.
He could have just put it up on eBay and not told us.
Caveat Emptor as ever but at least we know about it now.

Where on the neck do i find a signature; on the crome plate (neck/body) I´ve "W 2114".


[quote name='BB2000' post='211360' date='Jun 2 2008, 09:48 PM']From memory I think I have a fretted Wall with a serial number just one away from this.

Whose signature is on the neck?[/quote]

Unbolt the neck, there'll be a signature on the neck beside the neck shims.
