dangee Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Mike’s Shuker (also in this section) has me hankering after something more traditional (i.e. a Fender clone). The Status has set me back quite a bit so I’d prefer to lessen the hit by trading (and not selling). I’m not in a massive hurry, but would be interested to see if there are any trade options about. The specs are: Status S2 Classic, Thru-neck, 4 string, headless, fretted. Figured maple top, mahogany body, walnut tone block, vintage amber sunburst. I bought it new six months ago for £1800. The current price list has it at £1975 (plus £125 for the finish) before the cost of the LEDs. It has since had SIMS front and side LEDs added at a cost of a further £300. The bass is mint and would come with the Status branded Hiscox case and all of its original documentation. Edited March 3, 2010 by dangee

Just to clarify (after a couple of PMs raised the questions)...I'm after a Fender clone (though I wouldn't rule out other manufacturers) and I am looking for a bass of a similar value...not bass + cash deals. Thanks, Dan
OutToPlayJazz Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 This is one of the most stunning S2-Classics around. Only wish I had something to trade! Best of luck with your search Rich.
dangee Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 Cheers Rich...it is very pretty. No doubt (if a suitable trade comes along) it will join my ever increasing list of basses I wish I hadn't sold!
Golchen Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 That is a gorgeous looking Status! I've sold mine but I still really like them ....
doctor_of_the_bass Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Another stunner! What colour LEDs?? ATB Nick
mrmaffo Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 So am i right in thinking that you wont accept cash offers for this bass?

It's also my only bass (my spare is in the shop) so a direct sale could leave me without a bass, which would be a problem. That being said, if it was a great offer I'd certainly consider it!
martthebass Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 That is very nice. Fortunately for me I only have one Fenderesque bass to trade so this will remain a GAS....
