I don't know about James, but I have seen pics of Simon Neil (Biffy frontman) using Squiers before. So even if they're not using the current signatures over their CS's, they've supported the Squier name in the past!. In any case, Signatures Squiers are to get the kids playing, nothing more Si

I have, and use A LOT, a 2003 MIA Jazz (with S1). It's fantastic and the benchmark that all other basses have to live up to.......none have yet, and although I love my 1973 Jazz, that doesn't either (although it may well do after the refret it needs). So although I agree that you probably have to shop around, and I'd probably go second hand as the RRP is a bit steep, I think they're worth a punt! Si

Yup, am potentially willing to post at your cost, would have to find a price, but think it would be around £10. There is no neck-dive at all, just strapped it on (and I wear my basses quite high) and no dive. My gf even tried it out just now, she has experience of Thunder birds having bad dive, and thinks this bass is great for balance Pictures can be provided haha Si -
PM's sent regarding price innit Si

Thanks for the offer man, I've no use for a Compressor though thanks! And I'm not on good terms with anything Brandoni lol Si

Hurrow all I've decided that this could do with moving on, I realise that it's not worth much to anyone but me seeing as it's been a project bass for around 8 years haha. You may remember it from these two threads: [topic="5336"]Main Build[/topic] [topic="60626"]Jazz Pickup addition[/topic] Spec is: Body - Pearl White (has a nice 'sheen' to it). Alder (I think), it's certainly comparable in weight to my Alder bodied US Jazz (could double check for sure somehow) Neck - Maple Allparts Jazz neck with S9 serial Fender decal Tuners - Gotoh standard Fender replacements Bridge - Generic Fender style Pickgurard - Generic 3ply W/B/W Pickups - one Dimazio Model P & one Dimarzio Model J Electronics - CTS mini pots and all well shielded [url="http://img188.imageshack.us/i/15092009612.jpg/"] [URL=http://img142.imageshack.us/i/15092009613.jpg/][/url] [url="http://img134.imageshack.us/i/15092009615.jpg/"][/url] So yeah, it is what it is, a very solid and substantial bass, without being heavy (around 9lbs). A couple of dings on the body which I can photograph closer if necessary, but nothing you would see from a distance. Neck is in mint condition. [b]SOLD[/b] Cheers Si

[quote name='steve-soar' post='631353' date='Oct 20 2009, 02:23 PM']Hi Si, well done on the job front. Save your money, you have some wicked basses already.[/quote] You are of course right, I have some lovely basses, three in particular. But there are two that could get replaced by even lovelier ones. My Drop C OLP Stingray and my parts P/J are both currently not Jazz Basses lol, something needs to be done :-P [quote name='GreeneKing' post='631355' date='Oct 20 2009, 02:24 PM']Good news Si. Will you get a trade discount?[/quote] I should think so, although like I said, they don't really carry a lot of stock, so I'm not sure what's available to me....I know they deal with Fender time-to-time Si

....in a guitar shop....pretty small one, but it's a wage! Over the last few weeks (while the job has been pending), I've been window-shopping my non-existing pay packets on the following: - Custom Shop Fender Jazz - Status Vintage GP - a lightweight backup amp Fortunately all of this is looking a lot more likely now .............now do I put in the order for the CS!? Si
-
Anyway Does anyone have any pics or info about the line of Jazz & Precision style basses that Status used to do? I'm talking about the line that preceded the current 'Vintage' line! Any ideas? Cool Si

Hahahahaha, was literally just checking this thread again and my Sister pops up on facebook telling me to watch this: Hehe Si

[quote name='Musicman20' post='630590' date='Oct 19 2009, 06:10 PM']My other issue is that if you sell a custom...you never usually get the value back that it should retain.[/quote] Yeah but that's the same with any bass guitar, or instrument in general, that isn't a vintage Fender lol Si
-
I assume this is a MIM? Si

My Grandma lives in Thorrington, I was born in Clacton and I went to the Colne High School in bsea! Hurrah! and erm......just sent an email to Status about the 'Vintage' series....oooops Si

Yeah Bsea is really nice, whenever I go back for christmas, so for 4 or 5 days, I always get very very sleepy haha! But yeah, back on topic, maybe I should start looking at Statii lol, I think my tone GAS is cured with my Jazz basses.....but there's always 'Sexy Bass' GAS haha Si

[quote name='Lfalex v1.1' post='629389' date='Oct 18 2009, 12:28 PM']If you're heading to Status, best to phone and let them know you're coming. Then they'll be ready for you....[/quote] hehe!! I'm also from Colchester.........well...Brightlingsea, but again, consider Colchester as 'my town'. Big Colchester United fan too My parents still live there, so I get back every now and then, and always visit the Bass Merchant when I do. I really like the idea of owning a Status, home-town styley, will have to get around to trying one at a gig! Si
