I'm sorry to bring this old thread back up to the top again, but I have a little question about my own Status 2000. Not directly about strings, though:
Is it possible to intonate this bass? And if it is - where do I then adjust it? To me it looks like, I can only adjust the height of the strings at the "bridge", but especially the tone on 24th fret is a bit flat compared to the flashiolet.
