It's the one on the right...

Swamp ash body w/wild maple top, Birdseye/birdseye neck, black fret markers, Nordstrand humcancelling pickups, J-retro preamp. I replaced the pictured bridge (Badass IV) w/ a ABM quick release version.

Plays great, looks great to me. Considering a refinish to Honeyburst, though...

I don't have any pics of my own to show, but have you looked at the 'gallery' link on the warmoth website? Its got some shots of warmoth basses after completion.

Wow, that wild maple looks NICE. Do you have any less blurry close-up's?

^^^I keep hearing that referenced, but I must have missed the thread. Was their some confusion about Valenti basses and Sadowsky basses (hence the Sadowsky using Warmoth parts bit that I keep hearing)????? Enlighten me oh bass gods!

EDIT: To Vanselus

Sikly: naah, it's been a constant ongoing rumor that is absolutely NOT true. Doesn't have anything to do with Valenti, the rumor was there long before he made sweet basses.

Do a search - the threads are entertaining.

^^^Thanks! I'm heading off to search and hopefully get a good laugh.

yes...


Since this picture the pickups have been swapped to Nordstrands, the old J-retro replaced with a new one (had two, sold the older one), and the bridge replaced with the ABM quick release bridge.

Really would like to get a cherryburst or Honeyburst refin done on it...

No, don't refinish it!! Leave it like it is!! It's beautiful!!!

I quite agree, leave it as it is, it's amazing.

I'll second not to refinish it! That's an amazing looking top, hell even the FB is figured... Sell it and build a new one in the finish you want! (hint hint)

They do make Tele bass bodies.

Hey Nino, what kind of wood is that 3rd bass in you list of pictures? It looks like walnut or something -- very nice!

Thanks, that was a Koa Top.

I bought this neck & body off of eBay. The body was flamed maple & it was SUPER heavy. I ended up selling it before I posted it here.
