martfitz Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I'm looking at getting rid of my S2 Classic neck through, but don't really know what I should be asking for it? What should I be looking for sensibly? It's in very nice condition, no dinks. Quilted maple top in Aquamarine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosebass Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I have some small change and a dog ? nice bass , do you really need to sell it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Dave Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 In the current climate , more than ever , it's worth what you can get for it. Probably less than you'd like. It's a gorgeous looking creature and unless you're being evicted or something I'd hang on to it and enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martfitz Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 Yes, it's the one I play the least, I much prefer my Stingray and Yamaha these days, in fact I love my Yamaha so much I want to replace the Status with a BB2004, sad I know but I just like the feel of them.

Doc B Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Nothing sad about that, I replaced my Status with a Squier VM Jazz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 As an early 2000s model I'd say about 1000 gbp, but don't worry. There are plenty of Status fans on here who'll be up for such a lovely bass. Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geilerbass Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 That's a real beaut! I'd be keen to offer you some cash for it... ...if it had one more string and one less headstock. Statii always seem to be in demand, from what I've observed, so you should be able to get a reasonable price for it, considering the current climate.

leschirons Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Do yourself a favour, put it on French Ebay using the built in translation programme, or even just in English. Most players here speak English. Put a starting price of what you'd really like for it (say £1200) It's just Ebay.fr Status basses go for about 40% more here than in the UK. I've seen Energy series basses go for €1,000 on French sites and with the current exchange rate, you could have a serious result. The delivery is no problem if you use a good courier service and they all use Paypal here so no probs getting your dosh. If it doesn't sell, it's only cost you a couple of pounds.

The number of times I've heard "I used to have one of them, wish I still did". Your taste has changed to the Yamaha it may change back given time.
