jonnyom900 Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) Selling my 5 string T-Bass for those that don't know about these it was a Trace-elliot/Status mashup from the 90s. Designed and manufactured by Rob Green of Status Graphite, these basses were commissioned by Trace Elliott to celebrate being in business 15 years. Extremely rare instrument these days and the latest batch released under the name Status T-Bass go for a small fortune. It's got a active/passive switch with a 2 band eq, bass and treble. The other 2 knobs control volume and pickup selection. Underneath the pickguard is a hum-cancelling pickup. Has two hairline cracks in the paint on either side of the neck. I fitted a grey pickguard to it as i thought it looked better than the original tortiose shell one (also included). Fitted with dunlop straplok system. T-Bass padded gig bag included too. Trails welcome. Based in Liverpool. Would prefer it to be picked up but can travel to drop off/meet up if not too far. £850 ovno Weight is 5.2kg/11.5lbs ****NOW £700**** Edited September 2, 2018 by jonnyom900 Sold 1
optimus Posted May 6, 2018 Posted May 6, 2018 Have a bump for a good looking bass. Not much help for you, I know, but if this was a four string... I'd love to try it out. 1

jonnyom900 Posted May 11, 2018 Author Posted May 11, 2018 I'd wanted one of these for years, ever since I first saw one in bassist magazine. So when this came up I'd kept my eye on it and managed to buy it. But now I've got to be a grown up and sell it purely because Mercedes charge an arm and a leg for van parts.
silverfoxnik Posted June 13, 2018 Posted June 13, 2018 I know the market is slow on here right now, possibly the slowest it's been for years, but I am just amazed that this bass is still here! So have a BUMP on me for a high quality British-made, boutique, super-Jazz 5er for only £700. GLWTS 1

Exile252 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 I want this bass so badly but lacking the funds. Can someone please buy this so I don't have to look at it anymore as it's giving me terrible gas. 2
