Yup, never seen a bad Sei. I have a Flamboyant 5 and it's totally awesome!

Hmm, think you're right. This one needs to put on a diet too! 🤣

I agree the SM1, full-body one looks as though it needs to be on a diet! I wouldn't say it's ugly though. Just different. The SM2 looks a lot better IMO.

I know what you mean about Ken Smith basses. It is totally KEN SMITH, in person. If anyone have communicated with him before will know what I mean! Used to dislike the look of it but it kinda grow on you though. 😅

I missed out on the 20% Black Friday sale. Let's see if there is a Boxing Day/ New Year sale coming up or not! 😑

Yeah, it's a good move to steer away from a total clone of a well known one. Not too sure how the filter preamp works though. Is it like a fixed tone, pre EQ thingy?

https://www.jonesbasses.com/ I recently came across this and I know it's a clone on the "you know what" basses but I think Mark Jones, the luthier, is heading in the right direction. IMHO, there is nothing wrong in cloning. Sadowsky, Mike Lull, James Tyler, Suhr, Overwater etc etc. The craftsmanship on the basses seem to be very nice. Best of all, it's Made In England. Just wondering if anyone has tried out these basses. There isn't much information or review on the Internet. Merry Christmas ALL!

Not really into buying any basses actually. Only curious about this new comer!

Made in UK, means expensive! 😂

Came across Winyard bass from BassBros website. Has anyone tried one? 😁 https://www.winyard-guitars.co.uk/basses
