Well, although things seem very busy over in Colchester, some advancements to some already great basses, I can't help but wonder what is next down the line.

After playing Moo's Series 11 for a little while now it interesting to really see how Sir Robs basses have evolved, but yet maintained the same unique character. Although I have an MK11 on order, I am already thinking of what would be my next choice......crazy!!

Just curious to see what the rest of you would like to see come from Status next?
4 Asians, 2 Brits, 1 French and also some basses

Nice thread, Toddster B) I'd personally like to see an all-graphite S2000 reissue. I'd definitely buy one and I'm sure they'd sell in droves!

I would like to see a totally new model rather than a reissue of something old. after all they can do it better than most with the KB, KB2, Streamline.

When you think about it nearly every manufactuer hardly ever brings out a new model they just revamp what the've got, i suppose this is ok with them if they are selling. but for the customers like us it gets a bit boring.

So i say well done Status for getting your heads together every now and again and bringing out something new!

Please "re-issue" this Blue-burst Series one,Rob.......to go with my green one.:o

Majorly underated..the "hidden secret" instrument in the Status range.....Fantastic to play,fantastic all-round tone,super looker-headed or headless.

My absolute favourite Status bass in my absolute favourite colour...this one belongs too a forum member,I believe.

Beautiful.

Good one G-77, I had not listen to that in a very long time. Brings back great memories.

Here are my suggestions :

1. Re-issue of the Empathy.
2. A 7 string S2-Classic, headless with bend well.
3. S2-Classic headed 34" scale 7 string,
With added piezo bridge.
Full MIDI system with blend knob.

There you have it, my recomendations
Be well people & play hard,
.
