jasonobrien Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 (edited) [attachment=81692:photo2.JPG][attachment=81691:photo.JPG] I am selling my series 2 classic five string status bass. It's headless and has bolt on neck. Comes complete with green LEDs in the fretboard (front). Silver hardware. Maple body. It is 100% immaculate. Looks as it did the day it left the status factory. It was made in October 2009. It has no dings, no scratches, no belt rash. Has been loved and looked after. This spec would cost £2130 with a 20week waiting list. I am looking for £1200ono. Will try and get some pics up. Email me for more pics, details or any interest. House move forces a reluctant sale. Edited October 5, 2012 by MB1

Machines Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Everyone is skint ! I've seen some seriously stupid prices on stuff on here and it still hasn't sold.

petetapner1 Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Lovely bass!!!! Seriously tempted..... No love for Status??!!! There is from me. I've recently purchased three. Amongst those, the battered old S3000 'mojo' bass. Shes a beauty really.... Good luck with the sale.
jasonobrien Posted June 5, 2011 Author Posted June 5, 2011 Well, there seems to loads of love for status. She's generated a lot of interest. No buyers yet though, but it only takes one!!

jasonobrien Posted June 6, 2011 Author Posted June 6, 2011 By the way....... I'm located in south wales. Not sure of the weight of the bass but it is lighter than my musicman5 and my 75 jazz. Never given me any problems.

Status basses always tend to sell. I've just bought an S2 here this week! Sorry I didn't get back to your PM about your bass, I've had loads of messages coming and going about various basses this week. There have been a couple of Statii that have sat around for a little while not selling but they always go in the end!

Guest alexgrout Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Is this still for sale? I am sure it is not after 1.5 years.
barneyg42 Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 Been in my fat sweaty hands since August last year, and that's where she's staying I'm afraid
