Rich Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Have to say I agree. Obviously it's yours to do with as you wish, but if you job that in for a Warwick then you're Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Always fancied one of these but Bag End is a wonga free zone at the moment so, unless thrteen dwarves turn up unexpectedly later today, the chances of me finding my fortune soon are slim.

bubinga5 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Arent Warwick's going rapidly down in price..I would sell the Sei, then buy a Thumb. A trade wouldnt be a fair price match me thinks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Well I sold a Warwick Bolt-On Thumb 5 String, a 90's one with a Wenge neck in good condition for £700 last year. I reckon your Sei is probably worth at least twice that mate! Eude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MythSte Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I feel sorry for the bloke sat there with a nice Thumb after a Sei! He's going to come round to all your houses one by one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleal Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 I have taken it off ebay as i'm having second thoughts on selling it especialy after what you guy's have said, i'm gonna have a play around with it & see if i can get use to it, the playability of it is incredible it's trying to get use to the sound, i had my warwick for a long time & just got use to the tone but this sei sounds so different.

Kev Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) 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 Edited October 14, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6stringbassist Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Have you ever played a Warwick 6 string, the two I've played had necks like telegraph poles, very uncomfortable to play, whereas the neck on my Sei 6 string is the best I've played.

Silent Fly Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I used to own this Sei 6 strings. It is one of the best 6 string basses I ever played. Great B string, perfect balance, fantastic tone. Keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
