Used since the 2013, War Child gig, the bass is based around the old Status Original Series II, but it's fitted to Chris's custom specifications - Custom pickup positions and LED lights.
It also features vintage brass hardware.
Status have nicknamed it The Uprising Bass, as aside from being used once for Agitated in 2016, it's been used for Uprising only.
