velvetkevorkian Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) "Status" clearly also includes that you must live in England/Wales I beg your pardon, England only at this point.

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I thought "subject to status" meant you could only get graphite-necked basses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe_bass Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Saw this in the window of a local music shop & wondered what is was about. Seems an excellent idea for some, bad idea for others. Eg. I may end up getting a USA jazz much earlier than I intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
