Eisen Posted October 12, 2023 Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) I`m selling my fretless Wal Pro 1 bass from 1988. For her round 35 years the old lady is in very good condition! Recently the bass has been checked by a reknown bass luthier and everything works as it should. The bass comes with new DÀddario strings and a nearly new black Hiscox case, not Wal branded! If you can collect the bass and don`t need the case you can discount 150 GBP/170 Euro from the above price. Shipping only within the Hiscox case! This Wal Pro 1 bass is made of an english ash body with birdseye maple top and back in a tobacco burst translucent polyester finish. The neck is a Mk1 neck with a mac ebony fretboard with fretlines. There are some excellent sound vids of Pro 1 fretlesses on youtube. Highly recommended. I`m asking 5.900,00 GBP/ 6.900,00 Euro. Too much or too cheap make me an offer via pm. Xmas Sale!!! 5.050,00 GBP / 5.900,00 Euro! Edited December 12, 2023 by Eisen 18

Thanks for your request. Sorry, I forgot to mention...to me it`s normal that the dots on fretless basses are where the frets would be, so are all my fretless basses and I own just fretless basses. 2

Eisen Posted November 5, 2023 Author Posted November 5, 2023 Sorry, the black Hiscox case is gone with another bass! The Wal Pro 1 comes now with a brand new Ivory Hiscox case!

Oh my....🤩 Well, it obviously needs to be much cheaper since you ask, I'm suggesting around £500 should do the trick and then this beauty could be mine 😁 Only kidding of course 🤭 that is one lovely bass, GLWTS👍🏼 😜 1

NickA Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 This is actually the cheapest Wal on the market! The gallery want £7k to £10k for one of these. Glad I bought my Wals a while back. 😬😬 1 1
TheGreek Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 Have you advertised this on the Wal group on Facebook? I bought my custom from there (with the help of BCer @philw). 1
Shaggy Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 Lovely - I’ve owned three Mk 1 Customs, but there’s something aesthetically so “right” about these single p/up Pro 1’s. GLWTS 👍 1
Eisen Posted December 3, 2023 Author Posted December 3, 2023 Hi Shaggy and TheGreek and thanks for your support! Yes, I advertised a link to this advert in the FB Wal Bass Lovers group but it went totally under. Maybe I`ll do a special christmas offer next week and try it there again. 1
