    Hello All,

    I am forced to relist this bass as the buyer was not able to make the deal.

    For sale is my very special Status 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Series-II bass. This is #14 of 14 built and is the last of the original style Series-II basses that Rob Green will be making.

    I am the original owner of this bass and have had it since May 2013. I have played it rarely and it is in perfect condition.

    Included with this bass is the fitted Status custom retro aluminum flight case with keys, tools for adjusting the bass setup, 4 set screws to use single-ball strings, owner's information package with stickers, and the certificate of authenticity signed by the Status crew of Steve, Gerry, Roger, Dawn and Rob Green himself.

    The following is the complete description of this specific bass from the Status website:

    Book-matched Indian Rosewood facing
    Green pin-stripe
    American Cherry back wood
    Boxwood / Ebony inlay
    Green wrap-round LEDs
    Red wrap-round LEDs on 12th fret
    Original GMT Pickups, EQ and Hardware

    A more detailed description of the Anniversary basses can be seen at the Status website: Status Graphite. The finest hand-made graphite basses and guitars. Made in England. Just click on the Series-II Anniversary tab.

    I have this listed For Sale at $5000 US shipped in North America only. Shipping elsewhere is not included in the price. Respectful offers will also be considered.

    I would consider possible partial trade/cash deal for this bass for the following basses:

    Wal Mk1
    JayDee Supernatural Series I or Series III 4 string
    Fender USA Geddy Lee jazz bass
    Steinberger L-2 / XL-2
    Status Series II 4 string (mid 80's)
    Status S2000 4 string

    Overseas shipping costs for this bass will be quite high. The box weight and dimensions are: 15 Kg box, 122 x 46 x 16 cms valued at $5000 USD. Please use these dimensions/weight and price to get an online shipping estimate to your location from Calgary, Canada (postal code = T2R 1L2). I will only ship via the big 3 couriers, FedEx, UPS, DHL.

    PM me if you are interested and please pass this along to anyone you feel may be.

  2. If I haven't owned it already I would pick it straightaway.
    This is a real Status bass.

    I’ll guarantee you haven’t owned this particular bass. Did you mean that you have owned one of the 13 other 30th anniversary basses?

    There appears to be a distinct lack of interest for these 14 basses when compared to when they were first produced. I’m definitely thinking of keeping this bass until the market appreciates what they really are and what they represent.

    Cheers,

    I may just be keeping this bass as there appears to be no interest in it. It is a great playing and sounding bass so it’ll probably just be my home recording/practice bass until the market picks up on the 30th anniversary basses.

    That being said, if you are on the fence with this one, remember that I am willing to look at respectable offers. To help with this I have lowered my asking price to $5000 USD.

    Cheers,

    John
