peted Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 GORGEOUS! Why do all these lovely basses turn up when I've already got a custom bass commissioned and I'm paying more. Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacrilege!! Thanks all for the kind words and understandable droolings. It's not quite as intimidating to play as the specs make out, actually. Yeah, some adaptation is required if you're only used to 34-scale fretted 4-stringers, but the combination of lit position markers and allowing your ear to be your guide [which should be the case anyway, really] means that you soon adjust. Especially true if you've previously played a 5-er. Trust me, it won't be long before you're banging out [i]Jerry Was A Race Car Driver[/i] as nature intended [This post doubles as bumpage.

Golchen Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I totally couldn't play it, but if I had the cash I'd buy that in an instant! Beauty of a bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simisker Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 [b]Six-month bumpage!! [/b] Right, folks: I need the money locked in this beautiful but never-played instrument to help fund my business venture [[url="http://www.plasticle.co.uk"]Plasticle e-mail design[/url], in case anyone's interested]. The Sei Bass: [url="http://www.simisker.com/sells/seibass/"]http://www.simisker.com/sells/seibass/[/url] the new price that's crazier than Crazy Dave: [size=7][b]£999[/b][/size] [size=3][b]No trades, and no offers.[/b][/size] There are bargains and then there's this bargain. Hell, you could even buy it for this and sell it at your leisure for an easy couple of hundred quid profit. So... who's going to go first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Man this is amazing! If you were takin part-ex I'd stump up trade plus 50% of the asking price. If I had all the money I'd rip your hand off! Stunning bass and great price! Bump!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially "silly" . How it didn't sell earlier this year, I don't know. If it doesn't sell at this price, I.. well, I'll equally not know. But you get the drift. Someone here is going to have been in the right place at the right time, anyway. And irrespective of price, I'd rather it went to one of the fine people on here who would play it and love it, than someone who I'd only ever know as "ebay_asshat49563" or something. EDIT: Replied to you also, Luke 2nd EDIT: If someone were to create a new account here under the name "ebay_asshat49563" and reply with "PMed", I would worship you forever as a comedy god Edited August 3, 2010 by simisker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 (edited) It's stunning. And worth more than every penny. I'm currently trying to draw up a list of everything I can live without so I can sell them and buy this!!!
