STATII.COM: For all things Status-Graphite

Posted by Gremlin on 15-09-2010 09:07

Finally, here is a picture of the beast. I'll create a Picasa album to put some better quality pictures for you to see and post the link here! This bass is WAY better than expected. It's a work of genius, well done Rob. That's all I can say. You now how to do it. And I want to thank Gareth, who helped me out from the beginning with a whole bunch of issues I had to decide. Thanks mate, honestly!

Andre, somehow I double posted. Can you get rid of one for me? Thanks Greg

Here is the link: http://picasaweb.google.com/104822883.../StatusB2# Tell me if it works. Most pictures are double versions, one with flash and one without. Greg

No, I custom ordered the old style pickups with the logo and the three screws. They came out good, didn't them? Greg

That was a pleasant surprise! I was not expecting the monorail bridge... Actually, it is one of the points I forgot to discuss with Rob. I believe they are standard, unless Rob decided that it would look better and did it by himself. To be honest, ask him and he will have the answer! Greg

cool I already wrote to rob about that( the bridge) and the enclosed tuners instead of the butterfly tuners. your bass is gorgeous. I ordered a ABM 500 RC EVO III Head today so when my B2 gets here in 5 months I will have a rig worthy of it. Now to decide on speakers. At least until then I will have your pictures to look at congratualtions

I'm flattered!! Shoot me an email (check my profile) and I'll send you any picture you want in high resolution! As for the Ashdown, that is way cool. I wanted to get one for myself, but we don't have Ashdown here in Brazil... I bought a Markbass rig instead, and it is awesome. It's a small Little Mark head with a 2x10 cabinet, but the thing gives me 500w. It's a monster, and waits like a Chihuahua! Greg
