Thanks Rich, I had heard of them and they do clearly look competitive to the Status ones. In fact I don't know what the output is on the Status ones, I best drop Rob an email? They also offer Free P&P where as Status ends up at £12 for the pleasure, in these tough times it plays a factor unfortunately. Ken, your right, it is very much in the fingers. I really like the vintage sound in the current ones but there is just no 'meat' there so I must explore this avenue. Jack...another P bass with a Status neck.
