1986 Wal MK1 Custom, Birdseye Maple Facings



1986 Wal MK1 Custom in excellent condition. Mahogany core, Birdseye Maple faces, Indian rosewood fingerboard, original case. Serial number: W2806. It's been fully set up in our workshop with a set of round-wound strings. Nut width: 42.8 mm / depth at 1st fret: 22.2mm. Weight 9 lbs 12 oz. 4.42 kg. 

The body has only a few minor patches of wear and a few small dings, mainly around the edges. The headstock has a few tiny scuffs along the top edge. The neck is straight, and in excellent condition and the truss rod works as it should. The frets are in great condition with plenty of life left in them and have been cleaned in our workshop. 

The electronics all work as they should. It has Wal flat response, humbucking pick-ups that contain individually matched pick-ups for each string, thus eliminating imbalances. It has a built-in balanced XLR DI and a standard ¼ “jack output for amplifier feed.

 

CONTROLS

Volume Knob:- rotary adjustment of output volume, pull to actuate pick-attack. A narrow band of high frequencies is added to the overall tone-setting to provide a dynamic, percussive attack. Both the overall output level and level of pick-attack are trimmable from inside the bass.


Pick-up Mixing Knob:- This silently mixes the levels of the pre-EQ'd pick-ups to any desired ratio whilst keeping the combined output level constant.


Tone-Knobs:- These operate electronic, low-pass filters whose roll-off frequencies vary with the position of the control. Fully clockwise at 10, the spectrum is full and flat. As the controls are backed off, the spectrums of the appropriate pick-ups are foreshortened. (Roll-off 12dB / Octave). The dominant tone character varies, therefore, throughout the entire range of control. Pulling up the knob produces a quasi-parametric boost of about 10dB to the harmonics.

 

Condition Excellent 8.5/10
Case OHSC
Weight 9 lbs 12 oz / 4.42 kg
