giblett123 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) Morning everyone, This is Status Matrix 1 thru neck 4 string with graphite neck & J J config. The pups are status hyperactive Jazz + 2 band eq & the woodwork is American walnut. Condition wise it is top notch, the neck & fret work are fantastic as is the body, the only marks on the body are some small marks in the clear coat finish which are hardly noticeable, all the electronics work fine & it comes in a moulded hard case. Sound wise it is typical status, fat, v punchy & with a real "zing" to it. I've recently picked up and fallen in love with a headless version of this & can't justify owning two of these, thus the sale. I'm pricing at f £575 ono for a quick sale with collection from Birmingham preferred (I can meet on a motorway) but I can arrange a courier at buyers cost. Cheers for looking Chris. PS. I'm not really looking for trades but feel free to try, esp if you have: Lakland Duck Dunn, Sadowky jazz or PJ hybrid (+ cash your way), Sandberg California PM4......

Chris2112 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Did you buy this one from Marcus? I sold one that looked just like it to him a couple of months ago! Same ding on the top half of the body and everything! Looks like the same bass to me, and it's a good 'un! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutToPlayJazz Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 This one looks like a lovely example. Someone snap it up! Perhaps the owner could also post an ad on Statii.com if he hasn't already... Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
