Chris2112 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Still looking pretty there! I'd have thought this would have flew out the door given the resurgence of interest Level 42/Mark King but it just goes to show how slow the market is at the moment Gary!

I would guess that with a wooden body it would be slightly warmer and not so bright and snappy.

cocco Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I was thinking along the same lines. I'm looking for sound files or a you tube vid of a graphite one but they're all wood. I've very recently fallen in love with status. I think they're an aquired taste. Like Guinness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBus Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) There are quite a few all graphite vids on youtube, here's some.

As Gary said the wooden S2 has a warmer sound with the S2000 having a brighter tone. Both are just as good as each other.

Chris2112 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I think had it been one of the "natural" graphite ones (black colour) it would have walked out the door itself! Especially in the olden days when Status values were a little less. Although, did these ones ever have issues with the necks? I recall, from somewhere at the back of my mind, that there might have been issues with the necks on these shifting back in the day if you used light strings?

Chris2112 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I'd keep your eyes on the markets! At the gallery they've just sold a 1980's S2 fretless for £1199 and at Sounds Live Newcastle they had a bolt on S2 which looked brand new (and couldn't have been more than a year old) for £1000. Keep your eyes open and you'll grab a bargain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
