I am looking for a luthier or company who will make a good quality custom 32”-scale conversion neck to fit a full-size bass body—in this case, a Warmoth Custom-T that I already have. Warmoth only offers a 32” neck to fit its smaller “medium-scale” body. The stock offering from Lowe Custom Guitars is not what I would prefer, and apparently Mr. Lowe does not do custom work. Jeremy Kirsch has closed his shop, and Musikraft isn’t interested. The Allparts neck specs are not a fit. Freestone Guitars’ website does not currently offer a “custom neck” option. I’ve even contacted an Italian company which seemingly could do the work, but they don’t ship to the U.S..
So…is there a luthier or company around who would be able and willing to build a quality conversion neck—meaning not needing alot of futzing, plekking, and other work to achieve a decent setup? In brief: Telecaster headstock, 11/16” nut, 9.5” radius, Slim C shaft. The rest of the stuff (shaft wood, frets and fretboard, tuner holes, etc etc) can be discussed if there’s a shop out there somewhere.
Thank any and all of you, in advance, if you have recommendations.
