MOSES GRAPHITE 5-String Bass Neck

Sign in to disble this ad
SOLD!!!

Have a Moses Graphite carbon composite bass neck w/phenowood board that has been sitting around waiting for a body, but decided I have enough 5'ers.

So here's the skinny on the neck - when I got it, it was badly attached to a ill-fitting Warmoth body (put together by FatDog at Subway guitars...what an idiot). Anyway, one of the neck inserts was stripped and another was loose - I have all four bolts and one more insert. I would recommend filling the neck holes with dowels or epoxy and re-drilling/reinstalling the inserts. You can get replacements at McMaster carr (or I might have some newer ones lying around). The overhang was cracked at one point; as you can see, it's been professionally repaired and you can't even tell it was busted until you really look at it. The overhang is so long, I doubt you'll end up even using those frets anyway (I contemplated removing it altogether at one point.

It looks like this headstock was originally 4-1 (you can see the "ghost holes") but it looks like it was converted at the factory - too clean to be an amateur job. The heel is 2 11/16" (2.69") at the widest point, nut width is 1 11/16" (1.69"), 7/8" (.875") deep at the heel. Neck/frets are very clean. I think this neck was made to fit the older Fender 5-String basses (before they switched to a 2.9" heel pocket). 20 frets to the end of the neck, 22 frets including the overhang. 34" scale, this neck does have a tross rod.

These sell for around $400 new, selling this one for $200 shipped in the US. International shipping is no problem, PM me for a quote.
