Chris Wolstenholme on MTV VMA's..Status!

Yeah, I likenned the last two MUSE records as an attempt to bridge the gap between the Who's Quadrophenia and Queen's News of the World. Very concept album / rock opera.
That is a great description of Muse's sound, IMO!

I've only played a few Status basses, but I've loved every one of them. I was a Mark King guy in the '80s, though. Still am, to a certain degree.
 
This bass that he played for "Resistance" looks better than the status but I don't know what it is..

It looks to be a boutique bass of somekind with Hipshot UL tuning pegs and a ramp behind the tele bass pickup. Cool color too!
