I've owned an S2, and the Empathy's got much more punch, grunt and sustain...

Sorry... I need to 'thin out the herd' to raise funds for a new rig - if I may suggest going on bended knee to friends/family/cash machines (a necessary evil sometimes) then we can both be happy?...

Fairly that.

[quote name='kevin_lindsay' post='1244599' date='May 25 2011, 06:46 PM']Oh my goodness!!! I think that is my very first Sei Bass!!!! It was obviously fretless when I had it made for me back on 1995!! It's a great sounding instrument!!![/quote] Can I arrange a reunion between you and your old bass?? I bet it cost a lot more when it was new....

[quote name='Ou7shined' post='1244497' date='May 25 2011, 05:04 PM']At least 5 of those are mine. Nice playing btw. Sorely tempted (now I've gotten over the bridge pup) but I just don't have the floating capital at the moment. Speaking of which, imho you should wait until everyone's wages are in before heading over to evilbay. [/quote] On an entirely different matter, I'm an exiled Aberdonian - born in Irvine Place, and brought up in Bon Accord Street... f'like?

***SOLD*** Sold pending the usual... ***SOLD*** For sale, my Status Empathy 5 headed, made in 2000, bought only a few months ago from the original owner who hardly played it, hence fantastic condition. It has a true thru-neck, all the way to the bridge, which is no longer available from Status. The only tiny blemish is a repaired chip in the lacquer close to the lower edge of the back of the neck at the 12th fret, shown in the photos. A virtually as-new Status embossed Hiscox Liteflight case and a spare set of knobs are included. This bass is a rarity, but I'm having to 'rationalise' my collection to finance a new rig... It's only going to be on BC until next week, then it's off to The Gallery for a commission sale, and it'll cost you more there, so if you're interested I'd urge you to grab it NOW! £1600. No trades please, cash sale only. Dave

Last price drop to £500, then it's off to eBay at the weekend if there are no takers...

[quote name='4000' post='1243656' date='May 24 2011, 11:12 PM']Oh I wish! The worst possible timing. I wonder if it has a twin; the fretless I tried was for sale as such in the Gallery. It seems unlikely that the owner would have had it fretted whilst it was on sale and it went about a week after I played it. This does sound great though, I checked out the clip. Nice![/quote] No, I'm pretty sure it's the same bass - the previous owner (a French guy, IIRC) had it up in The Gallery while it was on eBay, which is where I bought it. It was fretted by that time, but the guy hadn't had the side dot markers moved for some reason. Having been a fretless, they were right on the fret positions, not in between, which did my head in completely, so I had Martin move them! If you liked it that much, you really shouldn't let it get away again - make me an offer... I might say yes!

[quote name='LemonCello' post='1243429' date='May 24 2011, 08:46 PM']I don't get on with Jazzes cos of the skinny neck but woohoo, she's a looker! Prettiest Bass I've seen on here for a long time. She'll make someone's missus very unhappy indeed! Good luck LC[/quote] Thanks for your good wishes. My missus is actually very amused by my antics... she said (not for the first time) "Are you selling that already? You've only just bought it!" :-)

bump...

Early evening just got home why hasn't anyone made me an offer yet bump...

The previous owner got Martin to make it fretted, and although I'm sure it was a great fretless, it's also a fabulous fretted bass - really easy to play, light, great balance, and a wide palate of sounds. Sure I can't tempt you?!? :-)
