|
| This model is custom made for [[Chris Wolstenholme |Chris]]. It's based on the [[Status S2-Classic]], but differs in a few points from his forerunner:
| | Announced on November 24th, 2022, Muse released a version of [[Ghosts (How Can I Move On) (song)|Ghosts (How Can I Move On)]], featuring French singer, [[Mylène Farmer]]. The single was released on November 25th, 2022. |
|
| |
|
| * The bridge pickups has been moved away from the bridge by 20mm to make the right-hand technique a little more flexible.''
| | A [[Ghosts (How Can I Move On) (feat. Mylène Farmer) (lyric video)|lyric video]] was released together with the song. It can be seen [https://youtu.be/mUQlsyNixpA here]. |
|
| |
|
| * The neck pickup has also been moved towards the fingerboard by 10mm which makes the tone a little warmer.''
| | == Track List == |
| | | ===Download=== |
| * Volume / pickup balance and bass / treble controls have been reversed when compared to a standard Status bass. This has no effect on the way the controls operate, it's just a personal preference Chris has.''
| | {{tracklist |
| | | |01 = Ghosts (How Can I Move On) | 01app = (feat. [[Mylène Farmer]]) | 01length = 3:37 |
| * A new midrange control has been fitted : this has individual controls for both mid frequency and mid cut / boost. This allows you to pin-point the exact midrange frequency then adjust exactly how much is to be boosted or cut. This midrange control can be pre-set and there is an on/off switch to by-pass it completely.''

| * Chris also specified front LEDs as a custom option. His main bass currently has blue LEDs (red, green, amber and white are also available)''
| |
| | |
| * Black hardware is standard on Chris' basses (gold and chrome are also available)''
| |
| | |
| * Individual mono-rail bridge units are fitted as standard.''

| | |
| Probably, he first played his custom model at the Olympic Closing Cerenomy. It's unknown, if this model differs from the prototype model, wherefore it's unclear if he used the signature model first-time in 2012 or 2011. At the beginning of the [[The 2nd Law Tour| The 2nd Law tour]] Chris received, according to his [https://twitter.com/CTWolstenholme/status/256419624374124544 tweet], three new custom basses, one of which is the [[Status Chris Wolstenholme Signature Bass 5-string]] and two others 4-string custom models. One has white-LED's embedded and a blue finish, the other one has red-LED's and a natural/black finish. The two new basses replaced the walnut and graphite [[Status S2-Classic]] basses.

| === Blue-LED Signature Bass (Graphite Finish) === | |
| | |
| [[File:ChrisBlueLEDBass.jpeg|thumb|right|Blue LED Signature bass]]
| |
| | |
| One of the first signature basses Chris recieved. Chris used to use another blue-LED bass, which was a CW Signature prototype model. Currently, he is only using one.
| |
| | |
| The bass's first been used in standard tuning, but has also been used, between 2013 and 2016, in drop D (apart from [[Kraków Muzeum Lotnictwa 2016 (gig)|one gig in 2016]], where it was used in standard). Sinec 2016, it's been used half-step down tuning, mostly for [[Starlight (song)|Starlight]]. In 2022, it's been used in the studio, in standard tuning, seen being played on [[Compliance (song)|Compliance]].<ref>https://www.tiktok.com/@muse/video/7077215261048278278?is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1</ref> Currently, during the U.S. leg of the [[Will of the People Theatre Tour]], it's being replaced with the red-LED bass.

| |
| | |
| Marked in Chris's bass rack simply as "Drop", it's not set in one tuning but it's tuned throughout the show by Chris's tech according to the songs in the set (mostly used in Drop D or C). It replaced the graphite finish red-LED bass in this role and has become one of Chris's most used basses, together with the Aqua Blue White-LED one. It was also used in standard tuning quite in 2016. Additionally, it was used in both standard and half-step down tunings for the X Factor Italy finals performance in 2018.
| |
| | |
| Since 2022, the bass has also been used for [[Space Dementia (song)|Space Dementia]].

| === White-LED Signature Bass (Stealth Finish) ===
| |
| [[Image:StealthBassCrop.jpg | thumb | right | White LED Stealth Signature Bass]]
| |
| | |
| This bass was presuambly first used at the [[Carhaix Festival Des Vieilles Charrues 2015 (gig) |Vieilles Charrues Festival 2015]].
| |
| | |
| The bass features a white-LED fretboard, but unlike the other white-LED bass this one has the matte black stealth finish. It's only been used on this gig so far and has likely been abandoned from live use.

| |
| | |
| Also known as "The Lighting Bass"<ref>http://www.status-graphite.com/status/frames/index_home.html</ref>
| |
| | |
| First used at the [[Prague Lethany Airport 2019 (gig)|Prague gig]] on 26th of May during the Simulation Theory Tour, the bass differs from other basses in that it's fully covered with LED microstrip lighting integrated into the body and the neck. It's presumably based around the Aqua Blue Graphite bass, which was previously used on the songs he's now using this bass on.
