Bump

Fantastic looking bass. Love my S3. Status are just phenomenal. GLWTS!

I'm going to regret letting this one go...

Acquired in a trade, restrung with brand new D'addario nickels and cleaned. Lovely playing and sounding bass.

Apparently Spector updated the Euro line last year implementing Gotoh Tuners and different EMG's.

The TonePump Preamp now features an adjustable switch.

Brass nut
Black cherry gloss finish
Body: Figured maple/walnut/European alder
Hard Rock maple with carbon fibre reinforcement
Fingerboard: Rosewood
Frets: 24

Bridge: Spector Europe series locking bridge - brass

Love the look of these G4M tweed cases. Do you know if a 4 string Jazz would fit comfortably in this? I've had issues with a few hard cases!

My 1977 Fender Jazz fits fine in her so yes I'd say so!

Nice hat but I'm definitely small headed (I hasten to add that I've got big hands )
[/quote]

Welcome to come try - I have quite a small head and fits me fine without movement

So happy to of recently acquired that gorgeous S3 previously owned by Alessandro "Vman" Venturella of Slipknot 🤘🏻Don't think I'll ever want another bass unless it's a Status!

April bump, back up for sale at £1200. My band's just fallen apart and there's very little prospect (or desire, frankly) to find another right now so I'm struggling to justify all my toys.

Silly question, but still no trades?

Size?

Size is Medium - fits most sizes

Welcome to come try

American Handmade M2 Pork Pie hat bought directly from Marcus Miller's website a few years ago. Only worn a handful of times and the condition is still like brand new.

I paid something silly around £140 with import to get this to the U.K. So it's a chance for MM fans to land something special!

Pics available on request

Will post at buyers expense or collect for £50 from Ashbourne Derbyshire

That is April 2014. 04 being April, 14 being 2014. Last 4 digits are the number of the bass.

Thanks!

Gear4Music lockable bass guitar Hardcase,

Fantastic condition, few marks but nothing major.

Anyone know how to identify the year of Status basses?

I've just come into possession of a beautiful S3 and was wondering when it was made....thanks for any help in advance

So the first bit of this wasn't really accurate then?

Giving the impression of an entirely wasted trip because of the bag, when in fact you went looking for other stuff too.

Either it was a wasted trip or it wasn't. Can't be both.

Agreed that Marcus has no people skills, but I find Mark to be great.

Top service whether I've bought a bag or a whole new rig.

Was a wasted trip because I went to buy a gig bag that was listed as "In stock" to then come away empty handed. Either way I'm not one to say "it's a wasted trip" me and the Mrs had a nice Starbucks 😂

Rang three times, no answer, drove 140 miles anyway, seems sensible.


[/quote]

Maybe some people like to drive, aswell as the fact that I wasn't just going to purchase the bag. I wanted to browse at BD overpriced gear.

Driving 140 miles when the site says "Out of Stock"

Mmmmm.

I won't even make a special trip to the PMT in my own town without calling first - even if the site says it is in stock. Even the big guys struggle to properly display real time stock levels.
[/quote]

Jesus Christ, get the picture and listen dammit!!!!

When I checked it was listed as "IN STOCK".

Got there and asked, they've updated it since.

So, No. I didn't travel 140 miles without checking whether it was in stock. The website listed as "IN STOCK" doesn't mean "OUT OF STOCK" to me.

I'm amazed someone would travel 140 miles without being sure what they were going to buy was in stock.

I like them, I've bought lots off them, had a couple of problems but these have always been very swiftly and professionally sorted out.
[/quote]

I didn't just go purely to buy it. I went for a few other bits too. In which the gig bag was listed on the website as "in stock" before I got there.

Obviously they've updated it since.
