Custom neck builders

check out warmoth, they build all kinds of custom spec necks, exotic woods, y name it, i think it's just warmoth.com

Warmoth will do it if it's a standard Fender-sized neck (or a few other options as well) but they won't make a totally custom neck that doesn't fit one of their templates. Warmoth won't even make me a replacement neck for my Warmoth bass, because they've discontinued the wide 5! :( So I have a gorgeous Warmoth body with no neck, lol.
 
Potentially a Cort but I am also thinking of building the bodies of basses and having someone else build a neck for it.

I am very largely a DIY person but the idea of building a neck scares me.
back contouring... headstock...... FRETS...having it actually fit well...aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
