I was in the bass gallery today speaking to John about ordering both a 4-string fretted and 4 string fretless Sei bass.
John recommended i do some research before having an official meeting with Martin to finalise the 2 bass guitar's spec.
So, i would love to hear back from anyone that has experience ordering a sei and has opinions on what is the best Sei model.
Well they have done an amazing job! it looks 100% authenticate. As for the weight, yea i totally agree with you and I specified for my Series 3s / GA24 to be as light as possible & my blue Series 3 is a lovely weight for me, about 4.5kg which is the same weight as my mij 70s jazz after putting on all the mods. The series 1 is not really my thing as i'm not trying to chase just the Mark King thang... even though he IS the worlds best bass player... i like to do my own thing haha
Well, at least when you get it, you will be older and wiser! haha
I ordered mine in Nov 2021, so it will probably be a minimum of 8 months... i have an amazing Series 3 to keep me company until then so I don't mine waiting!
A quick question for anyone that has owned a Jaydee GA24 - Can you stand the bass up safely against a wall as the bottom of the body wood is pointed? Is there a strap lock or something to install so as not to rest the bass body wood directly on the floor?
I'm going to pop in the Bass Gallery this Saturday at around 3pm if anyone wants to join me. I'll be taking a Status Series 2 to get a proper set up from Martin / John.
