It's an old auction ploy to draw people in thinking they'll get a bargain... not much chance with the Basschat masseeve knowing about it.

Yeah I agree Mike - do the fretless Wals command the same sort of prices as fretted in the US? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickA Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) Highest price ive seen for a pro1 was £3900 but that was a slab body reissue one, this is an original pro1, so worth more, but fretless so worth less. Also neck pickup where most of the reissues have a bridge pickup and hence sound "more Wal". Fretless tend to sell slower and cost less, but it's not a huge job to add frets ( vandalism though it is imho ), shouldn't knock more than £500 off the price. £2600 +25% = £3250. Probably a fair enough price. Someone will now try to flip it at £5000 plus on the basis of the Wal sticker. That neck btw:. Having consulted my Wal pals ... It's from an early wal pro bass, so from a different and older bass. Apparently people used to buy them with two necks ( fretted and fretless ) so there are a few knocking about.
