david1711 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) For sale or trade this active/passive graphite Status Matrix 4 string bass....I think, or is it an Empathy? Any Status experts out there that can advise? Price £850 for sale, £900 trade value. 1990s but as no serial number is to be found, I can't be more definitive. I bought this in 2003. Condition is as then which is reasonable but there are a number of lacquer dings/scratches, two of which are quite big and are shown. Bridge also has some light wear. Everything works as it should. This amazing bass has a carbon graphite composite thru neck, phenolic fretboard, 24 frets, and 35 inch scale. String spacing at the bridge is 18mm and the weight is approx 9lbs. Tone is crystal clear and the action is low and level from 1st to 24th fret. Comes with a Status padded gig bag. Postage is extra at cost and to be discussed. The price reflects the condition. Not seen a similar Status for less than £1000 and some go for much more. So if you want to grab a quality Status for well under a grand, look no further! I am located in Hertfordshire, near St Albans. Thanks for looking and please pm me if any further details required or need correcting, for which muchos Gracias!

blunderthumbs Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The serial number is sometimes stamped into the side of the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1711 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 It is indeed. Must change my prescription. No 913. Now if I can only fathom out how to locate the database on Statti, I might be able to identify it! Thank you kind sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapmonsta Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Lovely bass,these are just fantastic,versatile instruments to gig with. Also worth having a look at the Statii database and the scanned early 90s flyer pdf's that are on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
