[/quote] That Statii are supposed to be quite "punchy" (for want of a better expression) and (like most basses) that'll be in parallel mode as standard. IME, running coils in series gives even [i]more[/i] output, albeit at the lack of some tonal sublety. Married to an all-carbon/graphite body, that could make for one aggressive sounding instrument Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 LOL, Alex - Sounds as if my Streamline is a little bass with big attitude, yours is about to not only spit it's dummy out & chuck it's toys out of it's pram, but orbital toys may be the order of the day!

BassBus Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 That looks fantastic. I haven't seen too many all black S2s before. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whynot Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Nice one Steve. I had the first left handed 5 string S2 thru-neck from Status which was also all black as yours but with blue side leds. A friend of mine ordered the first left handed 4 string neck-thru S2s (fretted and fretless) so guess your new purchase came shortly after these.
