AndyThomas Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) My new baby... Always wanted a Sei and finally found this 2nd hand one, mint condition [attachment=19981:Front.jpg] [attachment=19982:Front_All.jpg] [attachment=19979:back.jpg] [attachment=19980:back_All.jpg] Edited February 9, 2009 by AndyThomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7string Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Great to see another Sei on here. Good catch Did you get your Sei used? If you did I think I know who placed the order for it in the first place and what your bass's nickname is.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyThomas Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Cool!!! Yes I did buy it used from the Bass Gallery Let me know, that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyThomas Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Is it called the "oilslick" by any chance, previously owned by kevin ????? From Scotland. Just found out. I can't believe I have a sei bass AND it's got a name. I've had it for 4 days and I've yet to put it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7string Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Yup, that right. You have the "oilslick" Sei The "oilslick" is related to other Sei basses like "Jezebel" and "Rampant Rabbit" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Thanks - it's my favourite too! ;-) The thing with Sei Basses is that they're all brilliant instruments but incredibly individual. I love the looks of all of them, but it's the fact that your Sei has been made for you that makes it that little bit more special. I had a noodle on the Oil-slick bass while Martin was making the final adjustments to mine, and it's a lovely instrument and oozes quality but it doesn't quite do it for me in the way that my bass does, and in the same way I doubt that my Sei would be quite what the owner of the Oil-slick was after....

I never posted my one come to think of it. Et voila- Oh, and if anyone here is thinking of moving on one of their five strings and fancies a trade, drop me a pm. Jay.

sshorepunk Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 My white Sei Jazz has been very busy of late, is now without scratch plate, felt like a change, I think I may send it off to get a tort' version cut, but also may have it back on for the next few gigs, got a break after this weekend, so may get it done after that! Still wanting a new pre, can't decide if I wanna keep the coil taps, may just have the bridge p/up tapable and eventually would like to sample the delights of Nordstrand Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sshorepunk Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) Thx Mike, will certainley consder that when I get round to making the change, can't play the clip it yet cos I'm sat in a quiet office, the sound of a bass guitar from my laptop will probably turn a few heads! Getting the time to make the change is going to be difficult as we are very busy right now with gigs and rehersals, all good fun! My daughter took the photo above, I've done a lot of band photography over the years and am taking a break now as I'm back playing in a band (no time left!) so she's taking up where I left off, hoping she will tie it in with her 2nd year visual arts course at uni next year. UPDATE - My Sei will today become paired with a new fretless, a Pedulla Pentabuz! Should be waiting for me when I get home from work, took a few weeks for this to happen and it's all thanks to eubassix (Dave) who went out of his way to broker a deal between me and a guy in the NE. It will get it's first outing tonight at rehersal and then will make it's first live appearance tomorrow night if all goes to plan! Then we have a nice gig at Moho in manchester on Sunday night Cheers Tony Edited July 7, 2009 by sshorepunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
