    A very quick comparison between a Z3, a modern Ray and vintage Ray.
  2. BassApprentice started following 6 string bass advice needed , NS Fin (Steinberger for 2025) , Yamaha your thoughts? and 3 others

    You know what, as limited and expensive as it is, I think it's really cool. Status are winding down, Ken Parker just passed away. Wood and screws is all well and good, but we're seeing less innovators so we should appreciate what they are doing just now. Maybe someone else will pickup the carbon fibre/graphite mantle in the near future....

    Yamaha Guitar Development (their custom shop) do a fair amount of one off models for their Artists. Some cool things and ideas that I would love to see for sale, but Yamaha don't seem to have that as part of their business model https://yamahaguitardevelopment.com/

    Unless you're DFS Sofas - the longest sale know to man.

    https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/250408439415025--dingwall-sp1-5-string-gloss-vintageburst They are showing as having stock and you can place a small deposit and they can get it to the Edinburgh store for you.

    Sounds like a solid buy with very few downsides for a £300 single pickup bass. Probably enough space to add another pickup if you fancied but doesn't sound like it needs it. Will be an absolute steal second hand if/when they come around!

    Nicely done - don't think you'll do much better for £120. I think I played one of those a few years ago. Was quite tempted, even at full price.

    Just spotted this (via Danny Sapko). A LeCompte 31.18" scale (very precise?) but with a reverse headstock. Having never played a bass with a reverse headstock, does it have a noticeable impact on string feel/tension? I know some complain about the lower strings on short scales feeling a bit off.

    Imgur not playing ball with these new laws makes browsing old threads much less useful...

      Dimwits bringing in laws to control the sheeple's lives.

      Image hosting sites always go down eventually. Can't think of many that I used 10-15 years ago which are still active

      The difference is imgur have exited the UK due to a change in the law.

      They continue to maintain their service to non-repressive countries elsewhere around the globe.

    Another cool Musicmaster that's had some extras added. My Musicmaster is looking awful boring over there...😂

    Incredible. Makes me sad that someday in the near future we won't see any new Status like this, was always a goal to try and spec my own. Far too cash poor to afford this, but someone will be very lucky to get it!

    My dad uses these for all his various guitar leads/gubbins. Could be a good way to keep the most used tools to hand? https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/skadis-pegboard-white-10321618/

    Well - there goes my weekend plans! I was going to swing by Jimmy's and try it 😂

    Would throw in MTD Kingston to your list. I had the most basic Kingston model and was really impressed with it. Sad I sold it tbh.

    So dealers have started updating their websites - £299. How does that sit given specs and what you might choose as an alternative? https://www.jimmyegypt.com/cort-gb-short-scale-bass-forest-green?srsltid=AfmBOorp25-uBNzH-_YfNTakUjqyTxZiaXJrDePoxu79ZXU44aVtLCO7
