Hi All,

Hope everyone's safe and well.

I have a question about getting a Status replacement neck for my OLP 5 string bass. I've attached some photos here so please do have a look at those. I don't unfortunately have dimensions of the neck pocket or anything like that, but just curious - has anyone replaced the neck on an OLP 5 string bass with a Status neck? I'm looking at a lined fretless neck.

If anyone of y'all have ay advice/tips on this, please do feel free to share. Thanks!

Measure the pocket accurately, and ask in the MM threads here if they are the same size and shape. I'm not an MM fan so I don't have one to measure, but I have a Status MM5 fretted neck on the way from a friend to use in a scratch build project. I own a Status and have played others and they are a great product and Rob is excellent to deal with.

I've only just found this thread searching for something else.
