How does that work?

You tell Warmoth what you want and they make it?

They make great bodies and necks pretty much to your liking (choice of woods) or you can buy from their instock selection.
I have 3x Warmoth 32" scale bass's and they are some of the best bass's I have owned so far.

You pick out what you want, they send you the parts. You bolt it all together.

Right off my shop, mahogany neckthru with bubinga fretboard, Schaller hardware and Bisonic style custom pickups in TB chrome covers, finished with Crimson guitar finish oil.

 

[Jeff Elkins]

That's gorgeous. How heavy does the mahogany make it? I love that wood.

 

[MPU]

It's quite light. I tried to choose a lightweight blank at the lumber yard.

As my latest experiment, I converted a Jazz Bass with a P-width Lowe Conversion Neck from @BeeTL into 5-string with 17.5mm bridge spacing using EMG pickups so that i could stay with standard jazz sized pickups but wouldn't have to worry about how the strings aligned with pole pieces. It plays and sound really great!

Nice!

You may be happy to hear that there's a 5-string MIM Standard 32" scale conversion neck in the pipeline.

I'm expecting to have the prototype in my hands pretty soon.

What strings did you go with?

Yeah, it's a little cluttered.

I heard you were working on a 5-string neck. That's exciting.
I'm pretty sure they are medium scale D'Addario XL Mediums with a Warwick medium scale .135 B-string.

I just received the Warmoth body and neck for my 32" build. G4 alder body, maple Warhead neck. Let the fun begin!

 

[David Morris]

Finally got the build finished. Here's the final (nearly - needs a truss rod cover):

FYI, I switched out the neck on this bass with a 30" scale - works better for me with that body. I have the 32" scale neck for sale - listed here:
