2010 Status Graphite Kingbass Mk. II Artist 4 String Headed Bass

The original KingBass was designed and first introduced in 2001. After sitting down with Mark King and discussing the options we decided to go for a more radical departure. The KingBass Mk-II is the result. The overall look and feel is obviously a continuation of the original headless KingBass models but onemajor changes include a more “old school” look of the headed neck. Combined with the Status ‘J’ style pickups and slightly larger body shape the overall result isa stunning new bass that Mark described as ” … the best bass Status ever made & the original EQ still sounds perfect”. She’s made w/a ridiculously Quilted Maple Top & woven graphite through-neck with a 34″ scale, 24 fret phenolic fingerboard is standard.The body has the classic arch-top contouring with a book-matched facing set on a 2-piece solid hardwood back.Having a slightly wider, thinner body compared to the previous KingBass, the feel is very comfortable no matter what your playing style. This is also equipped w/Status’ Custom Front & side Blue LED lights in its ebony fingerboard.  Its Mono-rail bridge units are fitted. These help isolate each strings frequencies and increase sustain and clarity. The phenolic fingerboard has a “slap-ramp” between the 24th fret and the end of the board. This makes “slapping” and hard finger-style playing more comfortable. It’s truly near mint & a very expensive bass if you still can order one. Its comes w/3 major build sheets all in its original Status molded hard case.
