Thanks for the 'bump' Bob, did I mention 'in passing' the war - oops sorry! I meant to say that this bass has the lowest, playable action I've ever seen on 'any' bass - Headed, headless, graphite or wooden?? sorry for mentioning - I mean 'starting' a war - 'I thought I got away with it' Let's face it - no 'one' type, or 'make' of bass is 'superior' over ALL others - (I think that's how 'the war' started)! - bugger - mentioned it again - sorry! At the end of the (very long) day it's all down to personal choice & preference - we'd all be in real trouble if there was only 'one' make or type of 'best bass' in the world - there wouldn't be enough to go around for all us greedy 'fat-wires' - (That was 'fat- wire' - NOT - 'fat - wa' - bugger - that was close)! thanks to everyone for their interest, hoping to hang on to this 'work of art' forever - if not a bit longer my main reason for liking (not 'prefering' - phew close again)! - headless basses is they 'seem' to stay in tune forever, which is a godsend to a 'cloth-eared old bint' like me! Hari Krishna, cheers, Tim [quote name='BarnacleBob' post='545990' date='Jul 21 2009, 08:22 AM']Tuesday bump for a cracking bass BB[/quote]

Not played one of the 'new ones' - but just prefer a 'through the body neck' to actually 'go through' the body. To my 'very' old eyes, in the pictures of the 'new ones' - it seems as though it doesn't 'go all the way through' - if I'm wrong -please excuse my ignorance!

Trace Elliot back on sale!! [quote name='dodgnofski' post='536081' date='Jul 8 2009, 11:01 PM']hi Bod, thanks for your interest, it's a cab & it's still available - good luck, cheers, Tim[/quote]

The serial number is 487 & according to Dawn at Status Graphite, was made in either December 1989, or January 1990? thankyou for your interest & the 'bump' much appreciated - ta. cheers, Tim [quote name='doctor_of_the_bass' post='542714' date='Jul 16 2009, 10:43 PM']Fantastic! Whats the serial number? I had one with a red pinstripe laminate which was I think #483. Bump![/quote]

Hi, I don't know what it's worth (help)? - I know it owes me an amount similar to the national debt of a small country - but what the heck & I 'really' hope someone doesn't offer enough to make me have to part with 'my best friend'! - but 'needs must' - bugger! thankyou to everyone for your interest ps - 'bugger'!! [quote name='pal1972' post='542310' date='Jul 16 2009, 03:26 PM']how much you lookin' for?[/quote]

Pics added - I'm afraid my poor photography doesn't do it justice

Circa 1989 Status S2 with really low, playable action & lots of mojo! Ungigged since returning from having oodles of TLC applied by Rob himself at Status Graphite + frets dressed & a legendary 'Rob' set up (the best I've ever seen)! Albeit at a cost akin to the National Debt of a small country, but worth every penny - the Guys at Status really know what they are doing & I can recommend their service & skill without hesitation. Original 'properly' through the body graphite neck that is straight & true. Birds eye maple facings to the wings & walnut? on the back. Comes complete with the original Status Flightcase, which due to it's age - could do with the foam being replaced at some point. In unbelievable condition for a bass of this age & plays like the preverbial dream, having a superfast neck & fingerboard. If you put "Status Bass Guitar" in youtube - you can see it being demonstrated by the Guy, who the Guy I bought from, bought it from (what)?? & after a holiday at 'Rob's Place' - the few tiny 'dings' mentioned in the video - have been polished out by Status & you'd never know they were ever there! Won't be heatbroken if I have to keep this beauty, - I 'may' be interested in a trade, such as a smaller bodied(?) due to my 'glass' back! Kingbass - with black hardware, or a really nice old Jazz/Precision, or Sadowsky etc - W.H.Y??
