    Status Graphite necked Jazz...SOLD.

    It's a smidge under 10lb but does feel lighter !

    The bridge ain't feather weight !!

    To the subject of trades.... Much prefer cash and it's priced to sell for cash

    However.... May be corruptable !!

    Would consider Aguilar TH500 or DB cabs

    Basses, would have to be something that hit the spot as I'm trying to stay faithful to my custom Jazz

    Status Graphite necked Jazz...SOLD.

    Very nice looking, sounding and playing Jazz Bass put together by The Bass Doc

    Details :

    Mahogany Jazz Body with Spalted Maple Top in satin Finnish
    Status Graphite Jazz Neck
    MEC Pickups
    Carvin Active / Passive 3 Band Circuit
    Babicz Bridge
    Copper shielded cavity


    The bass is pretty light and balances well, action goes very low as you'd expect from a Status Neck, the instrument is very resonant and sounds more toward the vintage side than the ultra hifi you may expect from graphite. Sits very well in the mix, big tone ! The circuit is very usable and doesn't have any daft extreme sounds that you wouldn't use.

    Only 'bad' bit is that the neck has previously had a different set of tuners fitted and the holes (although filled in with epoxy resin) are visible - see pic. A set of fender style tuners would sort this out nicely. In addition the previous owner fitted a string retainer with super glue (which has run a little too) and left a mark when removed - see pic. I was quoted £40 to re-finish the affected areas, I guess if you're a bit handy with the wet & dry you could do this yourself.


    Priced to sell @ £350 and includes a Warwick Metal flight case

    Collection or meet up preferred or can ship at cost.

    Pm or call / text 07969 027813

    Chaps.....

    My 'old' U2 Tribute band is out there again.... !

    Playing ploddy 8th notes and all that but having a blast doing it....

    I know Adam Clayton isn't Victor / Stanley / Marcus etc but you know there's plenty of space to be heard and the Bass is really integral to a lot of the tunes, not horrible wall of guitars to contend with and the whole U2 thing is a great vehicle !

    Some Vids from a recent gig at The Office in South Shields....

    Bass is my Custom Jazz (made by Dave Wilson) with Aguilar Humcancelling pickups and Aguilar OBP2

    AMP is Aguilar DB 751 with Aguilar GS412

    Website is under development (nneds some updates) just now but if you feel inclined to look it's [url="http://www.vertigou2.co.uk"]www.vertigou2.co.uk[/url]

    FS/FT aguilar db728 all tube 400W power amp -SOLD

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Posted · Edited by Marcus

    I used the 680/728 (see profile pic) with a pair of GS410's and it was simply the loudest amp I've ever heard.... Thick notes that you could reach out and touch !

    Played a ton of shows with my U2 tribute band - Vertigo U2 and it never missed a beat !!

    Long before Adam Clayton started to use Aguilar !!

    Ultimately we were playing too often back then to lug that Rigg around 3-4 nights a week....

    Now downsized to DB751/GS412 ;-)

    There's some audio on www.vertigou2.co.uk

    with the 680/728

    Regards
