Clarky Posted April 27, 2022 Author Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) Super slick fast neck, helped by Dunlop flats, weighs just over 7 pounds and the Aguilar pickup delivers a more solid fundamental sound than the single coil I had in my previous p90 equipped MW. Very happy indeed Edited April 27, 2022 by Clarky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJPJ Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Awesome looking bass and I bet it sounds wonderful too. Congrats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Serek basses are the reason I started investigating short scales after hearing David Byrne’s bass player on SNL using a Serek fiver. My budget wouldn’t stretch to one, sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owno Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Lovely bass! I was about to buy that one as well, but you must have bought it just minutes before. Congratulations, Clarky! Edited April 30, 2022 by Owno 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirMoxie Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I'm curious as to the durability of the paint job. I LOVE the Serek basses and the colors but it always looks like the paint might scratch off with just a fingernail. Am I wrong about that and it's perhaps more durable than I think? Enjoy it! It's a beautiful piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a beautiful piece. That I do not know (durability of paint) but I do know I had a MidWestern previously in TV yellow that was a couple of years old (I bought it used) and there were no scratches or worn paint patches (couple of minor playing dings but that doesn't count) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarlscharisma Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Fantastic looking bass. I bet those Aguilars sound awesome. Welcome to the Serek club (again). I'm back in again, after playing my bass a couple of days ago and thinking I was crazy to try to sell it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Will get its first public airing at the Tuesday Night Music Club in Coulsden, Surrey at the end of May when its (lack of) weight will be wonderful for our two 45+ minute sets!
