Status Energy

[ferg36]

Hi Folks
Can I have some advice please, I have been offered a Status Energy bass, 4 string, wood for £350. I dont know much about them, it looks pretty clean and has active pick ups, is this a good price and is there anything I would need to look out for.
Many thanks

If it's a wooden necked one from the 90s that's probably an OK price, they're sweet sounding basses but maybe lack a bit of ooomph although the active preamp compensates for that by boosting the bass frequencies.

If it's a graphite necked one it's probably a very good deal.
