vmaxblues Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 (edited) Hi All, I bought a project Washburn Status headless a few months ago, it was basically all there apart from pickups and electrics, and there was a bit of a paint discolouration where the controls are, although you cant really see this unless close up. I installed a pair of nice Mexican J pickups and a genereic eq in it, and some nice black knobs, new set of strings and voila, a headless Status (Washburn). It plays nicely and sounds actually really good, nice clean tone. There are a few marks here and there but it looks the part and is a useable and competant instrument. It is sadly another bass that stays in the overfull rack and rarely gets an airing, and since getting my ACG I am purging my collection. If you are looking for a pristine example, this isn't it, but it does look very smart and plays well and the price reflects it's mojo and history. If you are interested I will post some pics when I get home tonight. Yours for £195 plus postage or as ever you are welcome to collect Edited October 26, 2010 by vmaxblues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vmaxblues Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 It is official, I am a rubbish photographer!!! It looks a bit poorly hand brush painted by the controls, but I think could be tidied with a bit of patience and skill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
