Just finished the stealthiest jazz bass ever

I'm trying to build one very similar to yours... how would you describe the tone?
I'm still waiting on the Status neck to arrive to start the build..

That's an awesome looking bass, CardinalFan. Congratulations !
There seem to be a lot of Status-necked basses doing the rounds lately, but yours is one of my favourites.
I'm afraid to say that you've totally "out-stealthed" me on the StatusJazz front
. I stopped short at the dotless fretboard and black body ...
(The obligatory "rug shot")
(Now fitted with a pickguard and Hipshot bridge ...)
... although the StatusRay that I had before it was a tad stealthier
...
Anyway, I hope that you enjoy the tone of your new bass as much as I like my super-Jazz

When I saw the pictures showing just how stealthy it is, I got this mental image of you standing on stage looking like you're playing air guitar.
I like it!
I like it!
Simply beautiful, congrats! ... I can't help but love the style!
Our tastes are pretty similar!

Some very slick looking black basses here.
Lord Vader would be proud.
Sorry, just couldn't resist the urge to post just one more pic in CardinalFan's thread ....(No, it's not Photoshopped
).
