Rumble Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) I haven't had this that long having bought it from johngh a couple/few months back. John told me at the time that it was absolutely spotless and in A1 condition; he wasn't wrong. This bass is pristine. As you can see from the pics the neck is Carbon-Graphite. I think the body wood may be alder with Walnut on top. It has the 18V 2 band EQ with Hyperactive PUP's. There's not a single deadspot on the neck, which itself is a wonderful thing to behold. So, you ask, if it's this good why am I selling it? TBPH the sound just isn't what I'm after. I'm a bit of a Jazz and Warwick man at heart and the Status is quite a bit 'cleaner' than both. Contrary to some opinions, however, I certainly wouldn't call it sterile. Now for the price. I'd be looking for £650 cash or a trade on an interesting 6 string. Like I've already said, I think I'd probably love a Warwick Streamer 6, but I know there aren't many of those floating around so let me know what you've got. I also [i]may[/i] be open to trades for interesting 5's. The only real proviso is that I'm not really into skinny necks. Ta for looking.

Rumble Posted October 20, 2007 Author Share Posted October 20, 2007 Hi BeLow, I have the misfortune to be located in Coventry! You're more than welcome to 'pop up' and give the Status a go if you want. I'll even throw in a cup of coffee or tea and free use of the WC. (I know how to strike a deal!!)

Johngh Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Have a Monday morning bump on me. This bass is in as new condition. It was owned by me from new.

I bet it sounds amazing (like all Status do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
