Wow, nnnnnnnnnnice bass!
 
MK's bass is beautiful too - I wish he still played Alembic onstage. The sound from his Status during the tour of the UK at the end of 08 wasnt the best to be honest.

I guess these guys are like the rest of us in some ways, we have a choice of instruments and want to give them all an airing now and again. Maybe that was Status bass day.

'Fraid not Jazzy. MK uses his Status' (statii?) exclusively now ;-(  And for John, We saw the first night of the tour and I agree, the mix was appalling. Apparently, by the time he got back to england they were getting a really good mix.

I love this bass.  Seems like there aren't many standard point bodies in the FTC section these days...seems like there's a lot more MK's.

Will. The standard MK has a 'standard point' body. I think you're maybe getting confused with the Balance K body of which there do seem to have been quite a few made since it was introduced.
