Headless guitars & headless basses spread around the world in the 80's with the advent of Steinberger.
Steinberger and the Status are probably the only guitars that use the new carbon graphite material.

The combination of the futuristic woven graphite and the gorgeous wood-grained body made a big impact on the players of the time. The combination of futuristic woven graphite and gorgeous wood grain body made a big impact on players at that time.

In the 80's, the Series-2 was priced at 700,000 yen, which was as expensive as the Alembic, and only a handful of artists (almost none) were using it.
The artists who spread the status in Japan were MIKE PORCARO of the band TOTO, which boasted absolute popularity at that time, and MARK KING, who has become synonymous with the status. Surprisingly, MARK KING was only used for a short period of time in the 80's, but the cover of the live album "Physical Presence" leaves a strong impression. The brand became popular as a brand that fans could not get enough of.
It has a very tasteful sound that is not found in modern basses, with its graphite-like quickness in pronunciation and sound release, and the treble of the equalizer is a little low in frequency.

The pots were found to be a little worn, so we have replaced them with genuine parts from the UK. The active on/off switch has also been replaced.
There is a sticker of Kanda Shokai, the importer at that time, on the battery case lid. This is also an original item from the 1988 GRECO guitar catalog.

This is a treasure of England's 80s status, which has an important meaning in the history of bass guitars...

80年代にスタインバーガーの出現によって世界中に広まったヘッドレスギター＆ヘッドレスベース。
新素材のカーボングラファイトをギターに使用したのは、スタインバーガーとこのステイタスだけではないでしょうか？

ステイタスにはボディウイングに新素材のグラファイト用いたモデル(S-2000)だけでなく、エキゾチックな木目のトーンウッドを採用する当モデルS-2がラインナップされ、未来的なウーヴングラファイトと、豪華な木目のボディの組み合わせが、当時のプレーヤー達に大きな衝撃を与えました。

80年代当時の価格で当モデル Series-2 は70万というアレンビックに並ぶ非常に高価な楽器という事もあり、使用していたアーティストも一握り(ほとんどいません)でした。
ステイタスを日本に広めたアーティストとしては、当時絶対的人気を誇っていたバンド TOTOの MIKE PORCARO、そして今やステイタス代名詞とまでになっている MARK KINGでしょう。意外にも80年代にはほんの一時期しか使用していませんが、ライブアルバム Physical Presence のジャケットが強い印象として残ります。2000年代ではほぼ全てステイタスを使用していたため STATUS＝MARK KINGとなり(現在はJAYDEEを使用)ファンの方にはたまらないブランドとして人気を博しました。
グラファイトらしい発音の速さと音抜けが身上、イコライザーのトレブルが少し低めの周波数で、現代のベースにはない非常に味わい深いサウンドです。

ポット関連にガリが見られましたのでイギリスより純正パーツを取り寄せ当方にて交換いたしました。アクティブのオン/オフスイッチも劣化が見られましたので交換済みです。
当時の輸入代理店である神田商会のステッカー跡がバッテリーケースの蓋に見られます。また1988年のGRECOギターカタログに掲載された現物となります。

ベースの歴史上重要な意味を持つ イングランドの至宝 80s ステイタスをぜひ...
