jmanfunk Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Hello guys and gals, With the plethora of high end fivers in the for sale section at the moment, I've been very much missing that fifth string so I'm offering up my Sei original. It's in near immaculate condition, save the mark on the underside shown in the pics. Looks like it's had very little playing time. Currently strung with light gauge Elixirs and has a a low action. Specs: [list] [*]Mahogany wings [*]ebony fret board [*]7 piece laminate neck of ebony and flamed maple [*]Burled maple front and rear facing with amber tint [*]Bartolini pups and Schack pre [*]gold hardware [*]Green side leds [*]control compartment with matching wood facing [/list] Pics- Plenty more pics on request. (Hope you don't mind me re-using the pics Dirk. Sun is very much lacking around here a the moment) [b]Trade wise, I'm looking for any high-end fives eg. another Sei of course, GB, Overwater, possibly a Sadowsky or any super J. [u]Minimum requirements are for a 34" scale neck and 18mm or less string spacing [/b][/u]. Also, I'd be interested in frteless fives-a Pedulla would be perfect. Shoot me a pm with any offers. I would sell outright, but with the Sterling/Euro difference as it is, it means a euro price of 1750 works out at £1640 (price includes postage and hardcase). Not a bargain by any means but it is a cracking bass! Jay Edited April 13, 2009 by jmanfunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A custom Overwater has never been so affordable, at least from my perspective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekend bump. Plenty of trade offers but all have been with a 35" scale. Are there any 34"ers out there!? Jay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmanfunk Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Sterling must have gained a little ground against the Euro, as 1750euro now equates to £1,555 GBP. A difference of £85 to the price I quoted on March 29th! If anyone is thinking of a cash offer, put 1750euro into the currency converter at [url="http://www.xe.com"]http://www.xe.com[/url] and see what the current rate is. Jay.

Dubs Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 That bass looks great, and due to the gloss finish I’m almost certain those marks can be completely polished out by a French Polisher to make it look as good as new. Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with the sale [/quote] My thoughts exactly . The scratches haven't penetrated the finish so can be buffed out with minimal cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmanfunk Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 I'd also be interested in fretless fives. Anyone with pedulla pentabuzz collecting dust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmanfunk Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 I've decided that a five string is what I really want so this is still available for sale. I'd still welcome any five string trades of course. Also, some part exchanges+cash my way would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
