HazBeen Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Holy cr8p Victor, you are really getting rid of stuff. Lovely bass, GLWTS
Hellzero Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 These Sei basses are terrific instruments, close to perfection, but I'm just like you, selling the basses I don't use because I'm so comfortable with 36 inches scale basses. Have a free bump on me for this superb bass !
alyctes Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Too many strings for me, but that's quite spectacular.
TheGreek Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Ziggydolphinboy is lying on the floor at home drooling....it's hard when you're a big fan of certain brands.
andybassdoyle Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 He's not the only one. And I don't mean my 10 month old son. The thing is, whilst this might not be for everyone it's a totally amazing instrument. What is it with basses whereby we all seem to flip them about so much? Would love to give this baby a happy home... glwts By they way, how well does the midi pickup work in a practical/live situation?
TorVic Posted July 16, 2017 Author Posted July 16, 2017 Thanks all! I have not used the midi in a live situation but have tested it at home with the GR-20 pedal. As a complete midi newbie i found the tracking very good but really haven't spent enough time on it to provide an informed opinion. a few people have asked for some close up photos of the midi socket and jack input. will add them to the photo album asap.
TorVic Posted July 18, 2017 Author Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) And two close-up photos of the midi/jack and bridge/controls are added for your viewing pleasure. Noticed there are some bumps near - seeing them only now under the flash - they don't show at all in normal lighting. Edited July 18, 2017 by TorVic
CameronJ Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 [quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1500448976' post='3337758'] That is an incredible looking bass GLWTS [/quote] +1. That upper horn is...well...giving me the horn. Gorgeous instrument.
wright/watt Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Stunning bass.Sei basses are truly in my opinion the finest bespoke instruments in the UK.Alas two strings to many for me! GLWTS
three Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I keep coming back to look at this, so beautiful. Two more strings than reasonable for me but an outstanding example of Martin's world class craft
TorVic Posted October 11, 2017 Author Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) bump [b]1995GBP without the GR20 pdeal[/b] Edited October 11, 2017 by TorVic
three Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 I think this is one of the most beautiful basses I've ever seen - two more strings than I can cope with, but I'd be looking for ways to purchase this otherwise
simisker Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) As someone that's been attempting to track the market due to selling my own Sei, I've been keeping my eye on this listing for months. I have to say: how on *earth* has this bass not been snapped up yet?! It's flippin' gorgeous, it's a great price and it's even got MIDI! C'mon, folks! I hope someone comes to their senses and buys it soon, TorVic Edited November 8, 2017 by simisker
TorVic Posted November 9, 2017 Author Posted November 9, 2017 Thanks @simisker. Good luck with your sale.
