STATUS STREAMLINE H/LESS BASS.


 

  • CONDITION: New.
  • ALL GRAPHITE.


    This is a brand new hand built Status Streamline headless bass. It has been fitted (by Status) with custom white LED lights on the front and side. I have spent a lot of time setting this bass up to play with the lowest action possible, it is superb. The Streamline Bass is a one-piece, woven graphite composite instrument. Its compact design may be light-weight but it is a true, professional bass guitar which delivers all the quality you would expect from any Status Bass. The 24 fret fingerboard has a regular 34" scale. Only the body is smaller to make it more convenient when travelling or in a space restricted gigging or studio situation. An elongated upper body makes the balance perfect when used with a regular guitar strap but to make sure the upper fret access is not restricted, the back of the neck and body has a deep recess. The Status soap-bar pickups feed a "stacked", 2-band active EQ. This circuit has been developed specifically for the Streamline bass to give a wide frequency response with a broad range of tones. The Status active circuit is augmented with master volume and pickup blend controls. A side jack socket is fitted. Headless mono-rail tuners and the unique head-piece are also fitted. These have been designed by Status to work perfectly with both double-ball and regular single-ball strings. The bridge / tuner unit is fully adjustable to perfectly set the action and intonation.... once set, the bridge can be locked in place with the small Allen screws for maximum dynamics and sustain.
    We recommend using Status Hotwire, double-ball strings but regular single-ball strings can also be fitted. They can be locked into the head-piece with the Allen screws supplied with the bass. All the hardware is finished in black.

    I am a big Status fan and have known the maker Rob Green and his wife Dawn for many years. Rob made me a "one off" custom bass a while ago (see sold section of Vintage and Rare). I still own a Status which I bought off Rob back in the eighties, which I would never part with. Status have a hugh following overseas, and we are lucky to have a guitar maker of this quality in this country. Bass comes supplied with Deluxe Gig bag.
