Moosehead? A personal favorite of mine that you don't hear much about.
Is that a veneer from an actual beer crate or something. Very cool!

Which is exactly why I stopped adding offsets to my collection. Some of them look awesome, but I can’t have my axes falling over.

Yep! I love to drink me some Moosehead as well. And for some reason there are a lot of Moosehead crates still available, so I bought one, cut it up, and used it as the top cap on this build. I still have the other half of the crate stashed away, waiting for another build - something that’s not offset this time, like a LP Junior….
"Offset body" means the two thin parts of the body, the "waist", are not directly across from each other. A P-bass is not an offset body, Jazz and Jaguar basses are offsets.
