You can get a Hartke bass. They sound as good as a Wal, if not better and they are about $600.00

Thanks for the reply!
Again...great sound and sounds. I appreciate that you are making music, but more, you are speaking other things with your playing with the use of unique and different techniques.
Wals have such great sound. I am happy to have the ones I do. Truly great instruments.
One more question...what strings are you using and what guages? I use DR Highbeams, 40,60,80,100,120....the strings used so effect our sounds....

Andro, thanks for the comments. I don't know what strings they are because they've been on the bass since 1994 - that's the last time I changed them. They're roundwound and I remember a mix of gauges. Personally, I don't think strings make that much difference - hence my disinterest in them.

Great feel, sounds, touch, facility!
I have Mark II and Mark III Wal Fretlesses and they are all Wal, but I can't seem to get the type of sound that you have. I wonder if it is characteristic of the older 4-string fretlesses...wonder what the difference is in the pick-ups/electronics.
Did you use any effects while recording this snippet?
Would be great to hear more from you!
Thanks.

Hi Andro, no effects or anything in the clip. Yeah, I'm also mystified how different Wals sound from player to player - for instance I can't get anything near a Mick Karn tone no matter what I do with mine. I suspect it's all a matter of how one attacks the strings. I haven't really played any other Wals so I'm not aware of any differences between the early and later models. Interesting...
