JimH Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Have a bump - just bought a black 5-string so I know how good these are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I've always liked the look of these, but never played one. I was just wondering - do they sound anything like a Stingray due to the pickup positioning? Or are they more J bass-like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwoff Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Why are these so cheap! If there was any sense in the guitar world they would be over a grand in this nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_89 Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Thanks guys. The general consensus suggests they are the "status answer to stingray" however, never owned a stingray so i couldnt really comment. Not like a jazz though! Hopefully comments to follow from forum members who've played both...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merton Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Great bass, great guy to deal with. I'd have had it back if I hadn't blown up my GK head! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcc Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Had one of these with a graphite neck but sold it due to its limited tonal ability when compared to my Status Matrix. The body shape and pick up placement makes it one of the most comfortable bass I have ever played. I've been wanting a wooden neck one for a while, ideally a five string, but If you still have it when I get back to the UK in September I might go for it. Good luck selling it.
