Jerry_B Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) I've not seen a walnut one before. That pic looks like a retouched grey one - I nearly bought one awhile back. They're nice, but to make them super nice you'd need to put in some better pups. I think someone else on here says that suffer from neck dive a bit.

skankdelvar Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) Walnut's been an option for a while on the 'P-Bass Special'. One like this for £189 from Soundslive - less if you go for black or Candy Apple Red from other stores like Dawsons, etc. Edited March 21, 2010 by skankdelvar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom1946 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) I bought one about 2 months ago and they are light, punchy and excellent value for money. Don't understand the neck dive comment, mine doesn't... Edited March 21, 2010 by tom1946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom1946 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Ah but that's not the WN bass, that' looks like the grey coloured one with an alder body whereas mine is basswood or agathis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
