I know this is an ultra long-shot, but has anyone here seen or is thinking of rehome-ing a Wal bass (preferably a 4 or 5 string, fretted, but not committed to either)? Besides seeing the very occasional overpriced (8k???) Wal for sale by a reseller, I've not had much luck in my search.

Thanks in advance

There is one on Reverb

I have heard that Pro on Reverb is pretty beat up.

I love the idea of a 4 or 5 string fretted Wal myself. I think I would like a mk2 5 string but the mk1s sound great too.

I have sort of been looking for a Wal, hoping it finds me at the right time but so far it hasn't happened.

I've posted this on Talkbass but if anyone here wants to trade + cash (from me to you) my Electrical Guitar Company Aluminum/Acrylic bass for a fretted Wal, please get in touch.
