FS only Warmoth body quilted maple/ash

deedub72 · #1 11-16-2011, 10:10 AM

I am not sure if this is in the right spot? I have never sold anything other than complete basses!

Here is a gorgeous Warmoth body, I talked to Spike at Warmoth and was informed this body is Swamp Ash with a gorgeous quilted maple top. He said they would route it for $45.00 for any configuration.

This body new is just around $540 new, you can go on the Warmoth site and price it out.

I am asking $300 plus shipping

The blue on this body is so deep, it does look like the ocean! Personally, I couldn't imagine any other color on this body.

This would be the perfect body to put your dream bass together, get it routed as a P, J or P/J and get a Modulus style neck and you would be set!

I should mention the body is pretty light weight (about 4.5 lbs +/- a 1/2 lb).

I just bought a bass... would be an awesome project though!

I was going through my stuff and found a neck, if someone will give me the price I am asking I will throw the neck in for free.

The neck has never been mounted to a bass, the heel doesn't even have any holes drilled for the neck screws.

The neck is a 4, the body I assume could be used for either 4 or 5.

To answer a question that has been asked several times, this is a slabtop and I believe based of off the Warmoth 54 P

Here are pics of the neck that I will include if my $300 asking price is offered. This is a Jazz profile neck...maybe a tad thicker. I am not 100% sure what the wood is, I seem to recall it being Cocobolo. The fretboard is Rosewood, that much I am sure of, and a very nice piece Rosewood too.

It is a free neck, I know the headstock shape is a little goofy but that can be re-shaped if you desire.

BUMP

If anyone can help me identify the neck wood I'd greatly appreciate it. As I mentioned before I think it is cocobolo but I am not 100% sure of that, I just don't remember.

Turkey Day BUMP:

I have had some people telling me the body is alder, I sent pics to Warmoth and they are the ones that told me it is swamp ash. I am inclined to believe them too, the weight of the body is pretty light, in my experience alder tends to be heavier than swamp ash.

Either way...thru Sunday $275 plus shipping gets the whole deal!!!!
