I'm going to attempt to post pics of these two marvels that arrived today. I've only had a few hours with them so far but I am more than impressed! They're absolutely amazing.

Nice playing! Love the sound as well

I’ve had this Status Bass for about 2 years, and it gives me - the ergonomics I need. Obviously I'm heavily influenced by Mark King, but I’d like to develop NEW ideas, rather than copy or cover his repertoire.

Your feedback would be welcome here (as there are not many people in my area who've heard of Mark King; who understand his style).

Newer picture..



Still missing a couple!

What, and make it unplayable for me!! I can barely get the little strings to work let alone proper ones!!!

That Saturn marker JD MK1 is beautiful, Could do with proper size strings on it though!!! LOL

ohh i notice that you have 2 status graphite bass eheheheh

Wow, that's wild! I wasn't aware they made anything like that.

Well time to disclose my latest acquisition, the prototype 003 of the VMAN signature.
I was itching for a more drastic design without sacrificing the Status quality. It plays like a Status in all aspects, quite similar to the S2 I used to play some years back. It will pair well with my Kingbass paramatrix.

I need to do a new picture. I have a few more basses!

Yeah, I would never sell that little peach!

Pity the poor sod who sold it to me!!

What a collection! Glad to see that the Alembic MK is still with you!

I don't know if the lads over at Basschat appreciate it, but hotlinking may work:

Cheers Lefty. your white one with the Roman numerals is pretty cool too!

Can confirm. It looks stunning, and I love the hidden neck-through.

After a little wait I can now say that the funkiest, headed neck through S2 is now with me...

Unfortunately I can’t post a pic as they are all too big.... there’s a post on Basschat about it though under my name.

If the back has the same wood as the front then probably an Empathy. If not it's not.

Might be an empathy.

More pics please
