If you had a picture of the whole of the instrument it would be easier to tell what kind of pre amp it has. Mr. Green tends to keep specific types of pre amp for specific instruments.

Thats a Status Energy. My lovely for years.

[BassBus]

That's an Energy and that bass has the board 100 in it. Available from the Status website.

Had this S3 for a few weeks now so thought I should share some pics. It has a little bit of a heritage...

Just bought this from Reds42 (Nick) - I could see the tear in the corner of his eye as I left with the bass - absolutely beautiful example of this bass - could even consider it a work of art - would look great hanging on a wall but as we all know Statii are far more than that...

Please try to keep the drooling to a minimum.

Crosspost from the White Bass Porn Thread, so feel free to moderate accordingly if I'm not supposed to.

Here's my white Status S2 Classic, with beautiful Buzzard-style white epoxy Roman numeral inlays, and a black sparkle S2 Classic 5-string. Both have bolt-on necks.

The white one is an older model, with the old Hyperactive pickups and a board 300 preamp (which is wickedly LOUD, and the pickups have a brilliant sizzle to them). The 5-string has a board 303 with a small trimpot in the back to temper the output level. Both basses have belonged to other Basschatters before, the white one was Alan's (Whynot?) and the black one belonged to Rob (Bonin-in-the-boneyard), with whom I traded my Stingray 5 for this beauty. He has owned it from new since 2012 I believe, and I've had it since last August.

The white one appears to have a small issue with the balance pot or the pickup wiring. With one pickup soloed, it has massive amounts of treble and top-end sizzle. However, with both pickups combined, it is a good deal less loud and loses most of its brightness. I'm not sure why this happens. Wrong pot value? Pickups connected out of phase? Has anyone else experienced this with Hyperactives and the Board 300 combination?

Here is my Status S3000 serial nr. 62 from (approximately) 1988.

Really low action and amazing playability. Has its own special sound with a ton of output.

Its one hell of a loud bass.

I miss my S2.... still have lots of graphite necked basses, but should have kept it.... great instruments.
