Warmoth Alder Jazz bass body - ULTRA LIGHT!!!

This is the Warmoth body I used for my Alder sounds test (Alder Jazz Body Shootout!!! Warmoth VS. US Custom Guitars VS. B. Hefner)

180+Shipping in CONUSA.

Ultra light body like this from Warmoth would cost you 210+Shipping from them! Weighs in at under 4.5 lbs!

For more info on the body just follow the thread!

Check out the sound clips - great rock bass tone from this body, aggressive lows and mids with a low-mid scoop!

Bump!

Just about any Fender style bass neck ever made.

For my tests I used a MIM jazz neck and even the original screw holes lined up perfectly. No drilling, no nothing, and tight as you could ever want.

Actually tighter. I had to sand the finish of the neck I used for the tests down a little bit to fit in there!!!

Is this a solid body, or a chambered one?

This is a solid body, and it has never been painted, ready for paint, or for the purist, ready to play as-is.

It's completely unfinished, no oil, no laquer, no paint, minimal finger cheese.
