I know how you feel. I ordered December 7. I finally broke down and emailed Rob to see if he has an ETA. He said he would get back to me early next week. I'm guessing another 2-3 weeks(Ihope)

"I'm polishing my Status!"

I'm fairly sure that's a euphemism, no??

No sign of it yet. I hope it does get here in time for the weekend. I have a magic show gig to do on Saturday morning (kids show), but the rest of the weekend is free.

I have no double ball strings at all.

Unfortunately, there isn't any reason to be excited for me.
I have ordered exactly 20 weeks ago.
Still nothing.
It apparently takes a little longer...

What you got on order?

When I ordered Dawn explained that delivery time was partly based on what basic parts were in build already. So If you want a Streamline with Bendwell and there is already an un-allocated molding, then that gets allocated to you. But if not - it gets added to the new build list.

If you want wrap LEDs then if there is a fretboard already made with the slots for the LED's that gets allocated to you too. If not - it gets added to the built list. etv etc etc

I'm guessing - but it looks like the slots are molded rather than cut later. That would make a lot of sense as CF is a bastard to cut properly.

I suppose carbon is just a lot more difficult than wood. (But then Fodera and Zon etc all have 18 month + waiting lists)

Mine's not here yet, but I'm relaxed. This is only the 2nd new bass I've ever had. The first was a Washburn MB6 about 15 years ago, and it was rubbish. All the rest (including my other Statii) have been used.

If it does get here for the weekend I'll be thrilled - I have 2 magic gigs on saturday to do, but then the rest of the weekend would be free!

But if not - no drama! I have plenty of work to do to keep me busy!
