Thankfully, the previous sixteen years were filled with just one Status SII and one or two "second" basses that were usually sold off because the Status was so good. Before that there were just two others from when I was about 17. Oh so long ago! Edited November 15, 2009 by OutToPlayJazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB1 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='655393' date='Nov 15 2009, 08:21 PM']Well, I'm a latecomer to the club, but here's mine... It's a June 2000 piezo model with the neck refininshed in satin lacquer by a luthier. Set it up to my tastes this morning (rasied the pickup to about 3mm off the strings in the middle & added some nice 40-100 FatBeams.) Gigged it at lunchtime & it's got an utterly massive tone - Very very impressed! Apologies for re-use of Dave's pics. I'll do some more when I get a moment... [/quote] MB1.

OutToPlayJazz Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 The black scratchplate arrived this morning (thanks, Dave!) so I thought I'd take some nice pics of the tone-beast... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 very nice, what did it have on before? i think black really is the only one to have on natural. There's just a really classy retro look about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 If you look on Dave's pic here, it was black pearloid beforehand. I have both, so I can always swap between the two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
