Feeler: Sei 4 Singlecut; 1st Series 2 - WITHDRAWN
ziggydolphinboy replied to 4000's topic in Basses For Sale
I think done the right thing swapping my thumb with the sei.(Added a picy of my thumb) i had the thumb for 17 yrs!!!!! but had a accident skiing and my shoulder is painfull wichever bas i wear but the sei sits lovely. ta for advice about single cut, i may try and sell my two fours then get some cash together for a decent 4 string the difference between my sei and my other basss is incredible, i think basses are so much more a part of a msician than other instruments as i was told that buying a hand made bass wuldnt be better than buying a standard factory bass!!!(by a giutarist). popycok! im gonna take my sei into the gallery get some new electronics put on it and maybe get martin to re-finish it as its had a few owners i think, i hope he has time for me as im not buying a new one! ill start saving!!! have another bump on me.!!!! -

[quote name='The Burpster' post='308825' date='Oct 17 2008, 06:12 PM']Yep like he said^^^^^^^ Make sure you loosen the string off or better stil remove it, oh and PLEASE use the correct size spanner/screwdriver/ allen keys as you'll be well annoyed if you make a mess....! remember they are US made so they are AF sizes not metric.[/quote] cheers guys top remarks ziggyboy. -

[quote name='littleal' post='307088' date='Oct 15 2008, 01:57 PM']Thats what i,m gonna do, so as i said she's still up for sale my thumb was a 94 so if any of you guy's have one or similer for sale [/quote] its odd all this talk about warwicks. i love my thumb six tone and my new warwick dolphin sntcs is perfectly balanced. to buy new warwicks stil cost you loads ( new thumb £2300.00!)and the older ones are nicer made. my neck profile on my thumb 6 is super slim slimer than my 5 string and nearly as slim as my cort artisan 4 string!!! the bartolnis just kill anything else that ive played, yeah he neck is long but since i got the comfort strap sorted its alright . i think all makes of everything in general is a little bit cheaper at the mo as no ones got any dough!!! I mean check out the back of my thumb its lovely.!! lets hope they come back in fashion!!!!. -

[quote name='BassManKev' post='306684' date='Oct 14 2008, 09:35 PM']dude if you dont like the sei, then you dont like it, dont try n force yourself to, i think what me and others are saying is that you would be very silly to trade it for a thumb bass as the sei is worth WAY more at the moment, but if you really want a thumb again, sell the sei, pocket a load of cash AND get a thumb [/quote] mmmmmmmmmm me just waxed my thumb 6 89 neckthrough bartolini bass and cleaned the fret board!!! alwayws wanted a boutiqui basss!!! gonna wax my dolphin sntcs 5 stringier tomorrow ( Peizo brigde and brass nut) mmmmmm any thoughts boys??? im very confused! -
bartolini jazz pickups/neck oil youre thoughts!!!
ziggydolphinboy replied to ziggydolphinboy's topic in Repairs and Technical
[quote name='chris_b' post='298498' date='Oct 3 2008, 12:12 PM']Try and hear some Bartolinis. I don't have experience of the newer pickups but I have the older versions on 2 of my basses and they sound huge, lots of fat bass oomph![/quote] yeah have to agree with you as i got old bartolinis on my thumb six and they blow all my other pickups away. on my cort i got the bartolini mk1s (i know they are a litle sub standard bartolinis ) but i am well mpressed with them. i got mec on my dolphin theyare nice but my lace sensors on my jazz seem a bit weak. ta for comments just bought some lemon oil!!!! zig. -
