Thanks for the advice!

English bass collection so far....

Thanks for the info... side LEDS... very nice!

I have now switched the order to a 4 string as I never play 5 string basses.. In the mean time as this bass is going to take at least 18 months, another 2nd hand Sei Flamboyant 4 string bass appeared for sale at the Bass Gallery, so i thought i might as well just buy this one to keep me company whilst waiting for the the build to complete (the one on order will have a maple fingerboard and EMGs for a brighter funk sound...) If anyone knows who the original owner was, it would be interesting to know the history of a bass & what all the knobs and switches are for??? Picking it up on Saturday & asked John to put som 45-105s on it...

Good point!

yea post it in the for sale forum and i might be interested, please also include the weight...

Thanks for all the feedback guys, I have gone with something based on the 5 string version of this bass: Martin is going to run a few other ideas passed me but we have a good base to work from!

What a beauty!

That's a real shame! Loved his playing with Brand X... extremely underrated player but a legend nether-less, will be missed!

I visited his flat i think it must have been 15 odd years ago & he had a huge Status collection back then lol he'd just received his first Jaydee, a star child.

Is that Moo's collection?

I'd be very surprised if any were still not sold after about 5 minutes of that email being sent

The machine (never) stops! If you read Robs introduction to the 40th Anniversary basses, he mentions - So does that leave things open to working 100% with wood? Maybe some T-basses in the future?

Couldn't put it better myself & yep, I will also be sticking to my old S2

This is my favorite bass - If any one buys this one , i salute you!

Roll up roll up! Get your credit cards out ladies and gentlemen... a once in a life time opportunity is upon us!

Status Status Graphite 40th Anniversary Series 2000 Limited Edition Basses - REMASTERED 2022 - http://www.status-graphite.com/status/frames/index_home.html

He's live again tonight!

It's gone!

Great condition OR it's been sent back to Jaydee for some TLC

Apparently noo one knows what happened to that pearl blue Jaydee or the pearl pink one....

What are the chances John would make me a recreation one of the Jazz basses that were being shipped out to Jaco? I wonder if it would be too far away from their current line up for it to be even possible?

See you there Mike, I'll be a bit late.

I haven't had the initial 1 on 1 meeting yet with Martin. I was just dropping into the Bass Gallery to get my Status S2 repaired... there was no meeting to discuss ordering a bass.

No, John asked me to organise a 1 on 1 meeting with Martin that fits into my work schedule and in between that time think about if i want a 5 string or a fretless .etc
