karlfer Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) VERY regretfully over the weekend I have come to the conclusion I will never gig this beautiful bass. It deserves to be with the band on Strictly or Jools, not the Polished Knob in Todmorden (no disrespect intended). For a cash sale £1150 collected from Wigan, or plus £40 insured courier, UK. My TRADE value on it is £1250. I will be pinching some of Loz's advert. I would ask him but he's not been on since June and the ad is still in the public domain. Don't really want to disturb him. So. Sei Singlecut Series II (Melt) in cocobolo and flame maple. Basic details as follows: neck - 7 piece, flame maple and purpleheart board - highly figured birdseye maple body - ash with continuous wood cavity covers facing - cocobolo and highly flamed maple (bookmatched to centre) with 'melt' joint (also, black laminate between facings and body) pickups - bareknuckle PJ active pre - Demeter three band scale - 33" approx 19mm spacing at bridge, adjustable side markers - LEDs in red Very light at about 8lbs. Controls Push/pull for volume and side lights activation Pick up pan Bass and treble, centre cut/boost. Mid, push pull for passive/active, with passive tone control. Very happy to look at trades with cash either way. Sorry but must be 4 strings and fretted. CS Fenders and the unmentionable R word (do that through Karl Altdorfer on Facebook though please, not on the forum).

karlfer Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 PM's replied, some interesting offers, including a nice 70's Precision that I am awaiting photos of.

4000 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Ah, so sad to see this doing the rounds again. It's a lovely, lovely bass which I owned for some time. I sold it to buy a Sei fretless which unfortunately someone beat me to. If someone wants incredible playability with unique looks and really light weight (I would have said it's under 8lbs), it's all here. It sounds pretty good too. Kind of wish I had the funds, but unfortunately I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) If you still had a certain creamy white signature model made somewhere in California I could certainly have found a few hundred quid to start negotiations To me, this is for top giggers or studio use, it's just too damned nice for the pub gigs I do.

bagsieblue Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Bloomin lovely, got a couple of sales close to completion but this will probably go soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted November 5, 2014 Author Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Thanks Martyn, appreciated. If two of your stunning Warwicks were 4 strings............ Anyway, despite a good number of offers and a couple trying to raise funds, doubt this will go as swiftly as my other SEI did. Single cut are marmite and cash is in short supply. This may be a relative bargain but it is still a lot of money. So, further pm's replied. Sound clip was asked for. I don't do that sort of thing, no equipment or knowledge. FORTUNATELY, the man who commissioned the bass, Alex, from the Bass Gallery, does do that sort of thing and has left it in the public domain, so, linky!
