  1. Just seen that blue Sei jazz bass on their website, look very cool!
  2. I'm going to pop in the Bass Gallery this Saturday at around 3pm if anyone wants to join me. I'll be taking a Status Series 2 to get a proper set up from Martin / John.
  3. Glad you also appreciate these fine works of arts... great price for a high end bass made by hand in Japan!
  4. ... Sorry this post was meant for Talkbass...
  5. Another great (and marathon) live stream from Mike this evening! Looking forward to next Tuesday!
  6. Here's the link to Mark King's studio with his trace preamps. There's 37 pics, in the right hand column theres a link to click through to the next pic https://www.patrickeden.co.uk/gallery-image/Level-42-Guaranteed-Recording-Sessions/G0000Bd.3zstM4U8/I0000JZAvBg41LXg
  7. Gibson Thunderbirds can be used in any band.. it has 2 pickups 1 in the bridge position and 1 in the neck position. So you can pretty much any sound, especially with a good outboard preamp. I've seen them used in Rock, metal & funk (Bootsy)
  8. Hey Mike, I will definitely be there, I wouldn't want to miss Brooksy's Bass Corner live stream tonight at 8pm!
  9. Wow, such a great build. Did you commission and select the woods? What was the reason for selling the bass if you don't mind me asking?
  10. A few more old pics from the status website...
  11. If Status ever opened up their shop again, this is what i would order -
  12. I haven't had any replies from Rob when enquiring about ordering a new S2 Classic bass... that could be a good sign, maybe they will make an announcement in the future... but could be he's just tired of replying to new build requests haha
  13. Another jazz tune improv on the Jaydee, this time i set the bass on 70%, Mid on 100%, Treble on 5% , Tone rolled right off and back pick up selected... only thing with this setting is the bass is quite a bit quieter, probably would need a volume boost pedal if i was going to switch to this setting and then switch to a normal slap sound in a gig.
  14. Another bass sample, this time with some slap and finger style bass playing... Controls are Bass: 60% Treble: 50% Pan: Middle for slap, back pickup for finger style
  15. It was great fun yesterday, really enjoyed the stream, I woke up this morning with a higher IQ thanks to Mike's bottomless pit of knowledge!
  16. Anyone that's around this evening (Tuesday 7th March), Mike is back streaming now as of 8pm
  17. Early April fools .... [EDIT] Found this on ebay: Actually... Is this a genuine Jaydee Roadie 1 that has been 'modified'?
  18. I just messaged him on Reverb and he says he bought it from a friend. Was a bit of a coincidence & yea the colour must have been different. Yep Swedish prices i guess
  19. Jaydee on Reverb - Was this the same bass that was recently for sale on ebay for half the price? https://reverb.com/uk/item/66432109-jaydee-roadie-supernatural-1982
  20. Absolutely! Looking forward to it Mike. Oh btw, what was the name & year of the Level 42 concert where Mark was playing that Status Matrix bass? cheers
  21. Fantastic live stream with Brooksy's Bass Corner - https://www.youtube.com/@BrooksysBassCorner Anyone who hasn't checked out Mike's channel, you might be in for a treat. We had a great chat about basses, Level 42 / Mark King & some of the many interviews Mike has done with famous bassists including Marcus Miller, Billy Sheenan etc...
