Good luck with the sale - I would have it if I could, love these basses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smash Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 [quote name='niceguyhomer' post='352448' date='Dec 12 2008, 09:29 AM']I've played this bass and it's a real beaut. If it had five strings, I'd be on my way to Norwich now. [/quote] Thanks Homer, I really do love the bass but I have to make way for a couple of new jazz basses.

But will probably have to fit the Tuners and Neck myself that's the worrying part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutToPlayJazz Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Someone buy this! If you've ever played the standard Groove, you'll know that trimax pickup is astounding, especially as it's only a 9v pre as well. With the graphite neck, this is as rare as hen's teeth & needs to be played in anger! I'd buy it myself, but I'm about to drop £2k on another Status...

Smash Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 Hi Sorry for the late replies.... Christmas etc etc [quote name='MB1' post='359505' date='Dec 20 2008, 12:36 PM']MB1. Does this just string through the bridge?.. or is it through body stringing as well?[/quote] It is strung through the bridge only. [quote name='flychris' post='359704' date='Dec 20 2008, 04:40 PM']Could it be possible to describe a bit the sound or post a soundclip ? and could you says what are the controls ?[/quote] The sound is quite similar to a Stingray but probably a bit smoother to my ears. The controls are active/passive switch, treble / bass / volume when active and volume only when passive [quote name='bass_ferret' post='360137' date='Dec 21 2008, 11:55 AM']And how much does it weigh?[/quote] Oh I don't have a set of scales sorry about that but about the same as my Geddy Lee Jazz [quote name='ben_eat_pie' post='361340' date='Dec 22 2008, 07:50 PM']Any interest in a fender hotrodded P bass? In olympic white, tort pickguard, body strung. Only a feeler though - that neck just looks stupidly sexy! Ben[/quote] Thanks Ben but only interested in another Status, thanks anyways. Infact now thinking I would love another Status so will probably go back to swaps again plus cash for that elusive Stealth, or a solid colour S2.
