SuperSeagull Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I foolishly managed to get a couple of small dings on my less than one year old Status. Gone through to the wood, around 1cm each. Deeply frustrating. I’m sure Status can sort it but I can’t drive it up there at the moment and I’m not sure I want to trust a courier so anybody know of any good finish repairers in and around Sussex? Thanks.

pbasspecial Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I would personally wait a few months and let Rob at Status have a look at it. Less likely to effect the resale value as much compared to letting others have a go at repairing it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frustratingly, it was something that fell onto it, the next bass in the rack is a Flea Jazz, another couple of dings wouldn’t have mattered on that one.

Didn’t know any of those so will check them out, all more accessible than Colchester - not sure that would count as essential travel!
