About the best pics i can take with my equipment and know how.The bass comes with guard screws there just off for pic purposes, you need a neck , neckplate, tuners and strings for a complete bass.

First I believe this is Alder here is the grain body has warmoth turtle , a P letter and a 4- something written in pocket.



Cloth wiring CTS pots , all wired correct and professionally


Another angle of pocket


Tug bar holes, appears to have been in 2 positions



Actual color is in the first photos my camera makes it look pinker



Piant was scrapped off inside of cavity , idk why.


if you have eagle eyes you can see the small chip look were the tone knob is and directly below it on the side of body


Pino

A nitro finish will dent or scratch very easily, if you can put a mark in it with your finger nail then its nitro. If its to hard to mark then its a poly finish.

No offense i do not buy that theory, i have a nitro fender and its finish is not that fragile.

I am pretty sure the paint is nitro the paint is very thin, also the paint around the neck pocket is not something warmoth would leave, also the guy sold it to me and was accurate in every other part on the bass it all checked out and has 4,000 100% positive feedbacks on ebay.

The paint has very light dings and a chip that leaves the ability to see how thin the paint is, the paint is very thin. SO even if it was poly its thin, but again i am 99% sure its nitro, i just cant verify 100% so i ask that you do not let the paint being nitro factor into purchasing.

The writing in pencil in the neck pocket is "4-10" which stands for the original weight of the body; 4 pounds 10 ounces. Warmouth writes the weight of each of their bodies this way. Nice and light, actually. I'd love to get this...been looking on the Warmoth website for P-bass bodies but my funds aren't good at this time. Good luck with it. )-(

That grain in the neck pocket is definitely swamp ash. Nice body, I wish I had seen this before I just bought a 4-9 ash Warmoth body!
