OutToPlayJazz Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 (edited) Hey guys, sorry for the stolen photos - I haven't gotten around to taking any yet. Picked this up from Mike (Beneath it all) today & gave it a good clean & a good light set of strings. She's called the Basschat Status whore, as she's been owned by Dr.Dave, the Beedster, ZPQ & Beneath it all. If I missed anyone, apologies! Current photos tomorrow! Oh, by the way... Who filled in the strap holder holes & put a single one in the middle of the base of the body?? Edited December 21, 2007 by OutToPlayJazz Quote

martthebass Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I've watched this one do the rounds. When I've cut my 5 string teeth on my DJ5 maybe it'll be my turn? Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted December 17, 2007 Author Posted December 17, 2007 I think Merton has put his car keys into the hat first, but best offer will win the day as per usual, Mart Quote
martthebass Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 No problem OTPJ - I am currently skint. Also the gig money from this years 'festivities' have been claimed by Daughter one for next terms drinking bill at Uni. How will I cope without trading basses every few months? Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted December 17, 2007 Author Posted December 17, 2007 Hmmm... That's a tough one, mate. I'd make daughter #1 get a part time job and work her way through college, like the rest of us had to! Quote
EdwardHimself Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 yeah and it's gonna be me who owns it next Quote
steve-soar Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Mmmmmmn, very strange, apparently a Mr Ken Bhutan of Switzerland owns this bass too. Check the Statii web site and look for "Show off your Statii's, Energy 5 string". Can anyone explain? Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted December 21, 2007 Author Posted December 21, 2007 Indeed... It's left the BC fold, I'm afraid. In fact, possibly the shortest time I've ever had a bass! The statii member contacted me the other day asking if I still had my KingBass 5 for sale. I told him I'd sold it, had bought a new replacement S2 & just picked up an Energy Artist 5 with a replacement graphite neck. He offered me a price I couldn't refuse for the energy I think this is called "trafficking" in certain countries Quote
EdwardHimself Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 oh well guess i won't be buying it then. what's so bad about it that no one seems to want it? Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted December 21, 2007 Author Posted December 21, 2007 I actually rather liked it - I was just offered a lot more money than I paid for it at the right time. Once I'd put on the spare set of rotosound 30-115's, it sang! We'll see how Mick in Switzerland gets on with it Quote
