guitarnbass Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 That's nice. Can you get around on it okay without the lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Cooke Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 the tuners look a bit exposed... a guardrail could help there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Love that spalted wood -- gorgeous. What a superb bass. Can I have it please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) That is lovely indeed. I also have a soft spot for spalted wood. The facings on my Wal were taken from a piece I picked up in Vermont on a ski-ing holiday a few years back.

peted Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 It's basses like this that make me GAS for a Status. I've been GAS-free for months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Loss Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Can I ask how much it was? I am thinking of getting a 5 or 6 string fretless soon, and I live in Holywood (you know, just outside Belfast, over the hills from Ards etc) and I dunno if Status basses are in my price range (1200-1300 TOPS). Cheers. Beautiful bass, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_K Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 >> King of Loss It was £2049, It's currently £1849 for the specs plus a full flight case plus a little extra for the work that had to be done on the facing - It's not the easiest of woods to work!
