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??
