Status Series 23 5-string - *SOLD* £2500 Woking

[lowregisterhead]

The cull continues. Up for sale is a beautiful S23 Rob made for me at the beginning of last year, not long after they started up production again.

 

It's in a custom Satin Black finish, with Tri-max pickups in soapbar cases and 'Paramatrix' 4-band EQ, making it really tonally versatile. With these specs, it cost a shade over £3500, so as I understand Status aren't taking orders at the moment, you can save yourself a grand and a long wait! It's light (4kg) but being headless, it feels even lighter on a strap. It's in immaculate condition, complete with its Status-branded Hiscox case, all the paperwork, and I'm throwing in two new sets of double ball end Hotwires strings as well.

 

If it's such a fabulous instrument, why am I selling it, you may well ask. The main reasons are I have too many basses, and I find myself reverting to my old Laklands, which just feel like home, so it's time to move it on (along with several others that I've also just listed on here).

 

Collection preferred from near Woking in Surrey, but I can post within the UK at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, no trade offers please.

 

NOW SOLD

If it didn't have the Parametric EQ, I'd have ripped your arm off! 😲 Best of luck with the sale. Fantastic bass!
