Snook Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) After saying I'd never sell it, for some reason last weekend I just woke up thinking I'd sell this! Have been after a Aguilar DB751 so selling to pay towards one I'm hopefully just about to purchase. Is a beautiful bass and one I'm quite attached to, no doubt I'm going to regret this! Status Kingbass Artist from 2003. Wonderful looking bass. 32" Scale, 19mm string spacing, Bendwell. Also being one of the earlier ones, it still has the smaller Status/Hiscox case (similar size to a guitar case!). Blue/Greenish (hard to picture) flame top. Bass has been used, I gigged it from about 2012 when I got it, all the way until at least 2015. It has a few marks to show, had some before I had it and some more gained over the last few years I suspect. However is still a very tidy and good condition bass. Fortunately the majority or marks/dings are on the back of the bass. See pictures... The only other thing to note, this has happened to three of my Kingbasses now, the lacquer on the side of fretboard came away, I've had this filled in by a local luthier with some lacquer so it is smooth/cannot be felt. However it can be seen, this is on the bottom side of the neck so not seen when playing. Looking for £1550. Happy to ship if needs be, but would of course rather collection. Based in Yeovil, Somerset. Edited May 25, 2018 by Snook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Aaaaaaand that’s why I wish I had more money. This is my dream king bass...

TheGreek Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Used to be mine - would love to have it back but I'd need to move some gear to raise the funds.... Please note that it's much greener in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked Mrs T and she said “you had one and sold it - how good can they be?” And I tried to point out I sold it when ‘we’ needed the money. To be honest...i’d Love it, but it won’t feed the kids 😂😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) In every photo of this bass it seems to be green/blue however in real life it is more like this: Edited January 14, 2018 by TheGreek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the weight & neck width @ the nut & 12th fret...thank you...BCH Think its about 44mm at the nut, approx 56/57mm at the 12th fret. Weight is about 3/3.5kg (according to bathroom scales!), is certainly a light bass, particular in comparison to my other Kingbasses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
