attackbass Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 I refer to it as the Dark Lord. Guitar & Bass Build stingray body in gloss black Status Graphite neck with vintage wire frets (the last one they had left!) Aguilar Pickup East MM preamp with the fancy midrange Albridge Bridge Schaller Tuners Dunlop Straplocks The skill and patience of the amazing Huw Price Tonally it blows away my Sr5! I love it! 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddo Soqable Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 The toilet seat pg is the one thing I don't like about stingrays, good choice to ditch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attackbass Posted April 1, 2023 Author Share Posted April 1, 2023 Yeah, I was extremely lucky. Somebody had actually got in touch with status before me but the emails from status were going to his spam folder, so thinking he wasn't interested in the neck they emailed me back and offered it to me. The guy was apparently not happy as you can imagine! I don't mind the scratchplate but definitely prefer it without. So happy with this bass! Every note is clear and even and is very responsive to my technique. People tend to believe that graphite makes the tone really bright but this isn't the case, for me anyway. Its no brighter than a normal stingray but there is definitely more clarity to every note. The east preamp is amazing too, that midrange circuit is very powerful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
