graphite is the only way to go! +1 on status

it wouldnt happen anyways, ernie ball dont sell their musicman pickups to anybody

i could be wrong, but i really dont think this is a stock bass and im pretty much 100% the pickup will definitly NOT be a genuine musicman pickup

the WH1, XP100 and WH4 all work great with bass iv never tried the xp100, but the wh4 and wh1 i have owned. the wh1 is far superior in sound quality to that of the wh4, but of course you have to decide whether its worth the extra money. from what iv read, i think you should give an xp100 a go, get ebay watching

i cant justify the 20 odd quid train fair to guildford, but i still wanna go, i can't believe noone from bristol is goin??

you [b]don't[/b] like block inlays?!

blimey thats cheap!!!

fairy nuff, in that case go for the B2.1u?

i really, reallllly need to have a play on a status s2 fiver, never had the pleasure, but now that im fully graphite converted, i must!

I fitted a Status fretless neck to a Jazz a couple of years back - it worked ok but it would only fit well on one out of the 2 Jazzes I had. Pity the Black neck wouldn't suit my Red Ray so well.......or would it?[/quote] yes, it will but yeah that is one of the nicest looking stingrays i'v seen, its [i]almost[/i] as nice as mine, but not quite why did you swap out the pickup??

when i record i either go di out from amp, or through the zoom b2.1u's recording interface with trace elliot amp modelling. i think we just need to agree to disagree when it comes to distortions, i like the odb-3, you like the pd-7, okay?

still no bristol dwellers going??

the amp i have is indeed only 130 watts, but is louder than most 200w amps. i aint just going off amp sound either, im going off recording too. i try alot of effects in music shops as well through full rigs
