[color=#282828][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]This is the all original Overwater Progress 4 strings first generation untouched with the "impossible to find" 2 filters preamp à la Wal.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]And for those without the money for a Wal, this is an excellent opportunity to have that famous sound for a fraction of the usually asking price.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I'm only asking £899 GBP or €999 Euros including shipping to European countries !!![/font][/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]State is very good with some usual light marks; frets and neck are perfect as the setup ![/font][/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Specifications are as follow :[/font][/font][/color]

Body : walnut with a one centimeter thick separation between the two wings

Headstock : 2 + 2 shape
Pickups : Overwater original humbuckers
Preamp : Overwater original 2 filters à la Wal (very rare these days) with attack boost on the volume control and internal trimmers (see pictures)

Tuners : Schaller (2 + 2)
Bridge : Overwater original with brass saddles

Action : 2 mm under the E string at 12th fret

Will come with a Rockbag soft case with a store brand on it.

Fully original and untouched which is also quite rare.

Non smoking environment as usual.

Sounds even better than a Wal certainly due to the better construction (I’ve owned a fretted and a fretless MK1).

The bass has been fully set up professionally and has a new battery as well as a new set of La Bella Super Steps strings (45-105).

I'll make some better pictures in natural light later, as these ones are from the previous owner and it looks way much better without dust and finger traces... ;-)
