    Thenk's for all your help guys, I'll mull over it for a bit, it's got no routing so I might make up a small pick guard for the controls, it'll kinda match my 62RI Japan fretless jazz!

    [quote name='gjones' timestamp='1384692362' post='2279477'] It's basswood. Basswood doesn't have much in the way of a grain, so don't go too nuts with the sanding. [/quote] Hey thanks, that's kinda what I thought, I'm undecided at the mo as its in really good condition, just thought I'd put the question out there, I wouldn't touch the neck just the body Dodge

    I've just purchased a nice silver series sunburst p bass and I wanted to give it a light relic look, does anyone know what the body wood is? I'm guessing the answer is 'basswood' but it feels so light! I just wondered if anyone would have an insight as to how it would relic? I would just like to dull the gloss finish with some minor sanding like a road worn, any help would be greatly appreciated. Dodge

    just thought i'd post this (noticed it when i was sat avin' a pint on Saturday), might be of interest to anyone in or around this parish! http://www.thevicswindon.com/get/events rog

    Sorry fella but you've obviously never played one.The construction on every one I've ever owned has been totally faultless,the "plastic neck" is a joy to play,is even with no dead spots,and will stay rock-solidly in tune in the most demanding of gig temperatures.Undeniably superbly made instruments,whether you like their "styling" or not Yeh I've owned one and I loved it, I'm not saying it's not well made and I loved the styling I just think they're a bit overpriced as the thread was asking, sold it bought a stingray which was amazing (which has now since gone too!!!) mid life crisis maybe!

    Can't get my head round status, seems a lot of money for a plastic neck! Ok I'm sure there's more to it but when I read from various posts that the neck heel is hollow!

    Hey thanks for the offer, but it looks like it could be sold pending the usual

    Hello all, this is a feeler to see how much interest is out there (new job means I need to fund a new car) Musciman Stingray, natural/maple, 2eq, transition/flea bridge with new mutes, black & white genuine scratch plates, original receipt/paperwork, strap locks (original buttons & Allen keys) you would be hard pushed to tell this bass from brand new, I can't see a single mark on it! Lovely grain Sorry no trades unless you have a CIJ fretless jazz, sunburst £850 firm (purely because in don't really want to sell it but needs must:))) [URL=http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/dodger430/media/STINGRAY5_zpse3e4d255.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/y474/dodger430/STINGRAY5_zpse3e4d255.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/dodger430/media/STINGRAY1_zpsc9ea0e52.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/y474/dodger430/STINGRAY1_zpsc9ea0e52.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/dodger430/media/STINGRAY4_zps961beafa.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/y474/dodger430/STINGRAY4_zps961beafa.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/dodger430/media/STINGRAY2_zps4397dee3.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/y474/dodger430/STINGRAY2_zps4397dee3.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

    I've recently acquired a maple/natural stingray with a lovely grain to the neck, after picking up the bass again after 20+ years it's just something I had to have, ( kind of a mid-life crisis I guess), but wow what a stunning work of art this bass is, i dont even need to play it, i can just look at it!! now don't get me wrong I've owned a status but why would anyone want to mess around with an iconic bass such as a stingray? When you think of all the amazing baselines written/recorded on a stingray why would you change it? It's perfect, good enough for Bernard Edwards n'all that, I can't help thinking these status necks are more of an image thing, as said before does it really improve the bass? I can understand replacing a damaged neck but it's a lot of money for a piece of graphite, hey just my thoughts guys
