Guitar
I have mentioned Status but then not got round to it, so here is
one of them - the other is a Shark but at the mo', I can't find the
pics, so I'll have to do that another time.
Status are perhaps famous for the headless basses, an association
with Mark King and other artists as well as "Carbon Graphite"
Innovative use of materials, electronics and design.
They also made other basses, including "The Groove" and "The Shark".
This bass is an absolute cracker!!! I don't gig it much at all - perhaps
only once this year, as I am mainly into playing older, Classic stuff.
Shame on me!!!
This is a Classic, it just feels right - perfect pick-up position, active
or passive nice balance and a lovely neck, I think it is due for an
outing, very soon.
You don't see many about, I'm not sure how many were made
but it took me ages to find this one.
Below is an extract from the catalogue, showing four colour options.
I thing the burst one is the nicest.
So, a cracking bass, that I must use more often. . . . . .
Made in England!!!!
Can't say that about much, these days.
Did a gig last night - mid week is a bit of a haul but had a great
night - lots of happy (very, some of them) punters, really having
a good time.
Took the 650 and 900 combination out again - second time in
6 days - great sounds - got a pic but need to get it off my phone.
Technology?
Got home and found a program about Hendrix. . . . . .
Well, I just had to watch it! Very entertaining.
Back soon with more, not sure what yet but perhaps time for
one of the guitars.
Cheers. :)
- A Picture Tells A Thousand Words. . . .
Time for a bit of a cheat, today! Left my memory stick somewhere safe, with some more of the collection, so not to hand at the moment - no pics!! In the meantime, the link I put up a few posts ago, comes up with these results, which I thought would brighten...
- Ibanez Musician Mc-924 Ds - At Work. . . . .
Lots of interest in the Jaydee - really looking forward to the gig on Friday. :) Ibanez Musician I have already listed the other one I have, some time ago but this is the one I had first and for some reason have never got round to taking any decent shots...
- Peavey Zodiac. . . . . .
Peavey Zodiac! Body, neck, two pick-ups, tuners and strings etc. . . . A neat package - just a nice bass. These are great basses to play. This one was my "Fireside Bass" for at least 6 months. "Fireside" because as well as having a great sound plugged...
- Ibanez Rb 650 & Rs 900 Out For The Night . .
I have had both of these for some time but only recently gigged with them. As I have mentioned before, I match up a pair - in other words, basses that can be set to the same sort of sound. For example, a T-40 would go with another T-40, my Odyssey is...
- Hello World, Gig Last Night & Peavey T-60. . .
Hello World. I finally got round to putting one of those visitor monitor widget things on my Blog! Up to now, I had no idea if anyone was reading this, so this morning, after a very late night, I was really pleased to see some visitors. So, to all of...
