Have a Swan 1248 for almost 3 years, is certainly not so windtight as the seydel for sure, is much heavier, sounds for sure far not like a seydel, but never had problems with it. Always did wat I expected.
Have this much more expensive 250 euro seydel Deluxe steel, some months, and have a lot of troubles with the windsavers, wich makes it now a days, already impossible t play with.
Would like to send it back, without cashback, because it becomes a nightmare to me.
Sounded extremely good in the beginning, awesome response, as it was recomended. But the quality of the windsavers, in my case, is extremely poor. The cheap 50 euro, Swan has better windsavers.
