I found out last week that my new 6 string fretless should be finished by september :brow:

So having serious wal withdrawl symptoms, i ventured up to my Dads to borrow his 4 string custom & played along to this backing track (I forgot how seriously funky these things sound) This is straght into the desk with no eq added, bridge pickup solo'd & the tone filter around 2

Tasty! Very tasty :)

If I had a Wal. I'd give it to you in exchange for your chops.

You're very kind, but i think if you had a wal you'd find it would come with that funky kind of vibe bread into it, they are so easy to play :)

Compared to my warwicks it feels like it does, the chunky wenge necks on my wicks are a physical work out :)

I'm wondering why anyone would buy a Warwick. They are design abominations and are barely evolved from trees. Comparing a Warwick to a Wal is like comparing brass to gold :rolleyes:

Funny enough I've found the necks on the 2 Wals I've owned very chunky, with the Mach I being a very pronounced "V". I understand they do vary a fair bit though... I had a Thumb BO which although chunky depth-wise, felt quite fast to me! My current bass has just been refinished by Paul H. and I asked him to shave the back of the neck for me, so I'm hoping it'll be less "clubby" than it was before.

Anyway, sorry for the ramble, lovely bass and admirable playing there!

That's also what I had done to my Wal neck. Found it too chunky too.
