i could have let them made in a sister-company in austria, exactly like that one, just a bit stiffer and made the way, that it doesnt stant on the tuners. but still in hi-def plexi.
even with lighting inside the plexi :|??


Looks fantastic!!

I must reiterate my point... The wall mounting will absolutely hold any bass but there is an intrinsic weakness in the bend at the bottom. My friend said that he wouldn't risk it because it's a weakness that could give at any time!

Just so you know!

Does look great though!... Might put my beaten up Series II #94 on mine!! If it falls.... It couldn't get much more beaten up!!

:)
anybody got any thoughts on approaching rob to knock something up of a similar design but out of his carbon fibre stuff, wouldnt this be a lot stronger?
maybe in different colours with the SG logo on would look super cool .might be worth his while ,think of the sales he would make . cost could be an issue but you never know?;););)


cheers...... darren

This is something I will be looking into when I get back.

I'm looking at an anodized aluminium which could be any colour you wish!!

Should come in well below £100... I'm hoping more like below £50!

I'll be getting on with this end of Feb!

Anyone interested please let me know so I can get an idea of numbers!

Hi,

I'd sure be interested in a solid wall mount of any kind as long as it will hold my S5000. Seems however that this thread went silent... Any news?

Rgds, Jonas.

Just my 2 cents (pence) here...... I've used the Lexan version of the wall-mount for years now (as "Beany" owns) and even sold a few extra I had to prominent Status forum members. According to Ned Steinberger, who developed these as dealer displays of his much heavier XL and XM series, there were never any known failures of this wall-mount system. Don't underestimate the validity of polycarbonates. Are there better ideas? Probably so, carbon graphite would be nice and I too would buy them. This one is as close to invisible for display of a beautiful instrument as humanly possible and has never failed....... KWS

Look for it as a nice second prize in the raffle.

This is a first generation N2H wall mount designed specifically for all Statii. Constructed of precision cut aluminum, carefully finished by hand, then powder coated to prevent oxidization. The lower support is designed for the 2 strap buttons to support the weight of the bass. There are 2 screw supports to keep things tidy.

Although merely a prototype, this is a quality mount which should bring years of satisfaction and be a substantial method of keeping your Status handy for use.

A very nice "piece o' work". Looks sturdier than any wall I have to hang it on!

Yes, you probably could hang yourself from this mount, but I recommend it to be used for Statii.....B)

I hate to say it, since I know how much hard work goes into design and manufacture... but it's a bit of an ugly-looking thing.

The idea to use aluminium is great... as is the idea of a lower support... but it's just a bit 'blocky'.. and that logo... ackk no!

Is there any padding... at both the neck and lower support?

Excellent.

My comments aren't supposed to be disparaging...as I say, I know how difficult putting something like this together can be.
