JensWest Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Up for sale is my Trace Elliot/Status T-Bass 5, Special Edition 1996. Built by Status in the UK for Trace Elliot. Hardware and electronics are Status as well. Controls are vol/vol/treb/bass, with a switch to bypass the eq. Treb and bass are cut/boost. Hyperactive pickups. 3 piece, carbon reinforced, maple neck with block inlays. Dual action truss rod. New Graph Tech nut. Alder body. 34" scale. 24 frets. 45 mm nut and 18 mm spacing at the bridge. It plays great and sounds awsome. It's in a great condition, although not a collectors item. It has a few small dents in the paint (not through) at the bottom and a couple in the back of the neck (hard to get to show in photo). Hardcase included (not original). Could be interested in a trade for a MM Stingray 4/5. My feedback on BC. Edited February 25, 2021 by JensWest 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Nice. Best colour/neck combination on these. Great price too! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manders Johnson Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Lovely bass, I've had 4 string, 5 string (unfortunately stolen last year) and 5 string fretless versions of these and they are very easy to play. None of mine had those inlays which I think are to do with the special edition and they look great. Good luck with the sale! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Agree with @binky_bass - I've seen several in Black - nowhere near as good looking as this one. GLWTS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JensWest Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Perhaps a bit less. But at least here in Sweden we need to pay VAT (25 %) on the whole amount, shipping included. If not, you're down to about £ 950. 🙂 Edited February 19, 2021 by JensWest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I'm sure that there a number of happy BCers to see this.... No VAT/ Courier to pay when it next comes up for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
