Is that a Cort B4 fretless??? I used to have one that looked almost identical...

True story; I sold my early-run ATK to buy that fretless because I was sure that if all I had was fretless, I'd get into playing fretless... 15 yrs later it had 15 yrs of dust on in it! >.<

Yes it is! It's a nice instrument, though I feel tempted to wire it passive! I just can't seem to get along with its preamp lol

This is my custom Warmoth Jazz that was finished late 2016 took some new pics of it and thought I would post them.

Warmoth Dinky Jazz 34" scale:
Swamp Ash w/Transparent Turquoise gloss
Roasted Maple Jazz Neck/Fretboard (waxed), 6230 frets, Turquoise face dots, Graphite rods (Reshaped neck at Nordstrand)
Luminlay side dots (blue)
Custom Turqoise headstock Inlay
Nordstrand Big J-Blade pickups (clean & clear) & Nordstrand 2b pre-amp
Hipshot chrome hardware
Custom neck plate
Super balanced and light at 7 1/2 lbs or just under

This Bass was professionally assembled and set up by Mo at Nordstrand.

I might be letting this bass go soon because I play 32" scales more now, Keep your eyes open in the classifieds ;)

Most of you guy may not know this brand. This is what I wrote to Jericho as a feedback:

The bass was packed nice and tight for delivery. No transport damage at all.
Bass came in a good pre-setting. Only minor adjustments were necessary .
Paintjob is excellent, no paint noses. Love the matte finish, because in contrast to my Aerodyne this bass is no fingerprint magnet.
The Pickguard is a little prone to scratches and dings, especially when you adjust the truss rod with the wrench, you damage the pickguard edges within seconds.
Neck finish is super thin and prevents any stickiness. I would prefer gunstock oil like on a Musicman.
The Ebony board looks amazing and the fretting is very good.
No big dead spots on the G string.
Only the nut allows some string rattle on the A side. I think you made the cuts by hand just a little too big.
The trust rod adjustment works very easy and accurate.
The controls provides a wide range of tones. The Potis are far better than standard Fender ones.
Pickups are surprisingly good. For a passive bass like this a hum cancelling J-pickup would be fine.
The HipSot hardware is the right choice for this bass.
The bass is despite the Ash body not heavy at all. Love the round body shaping.
I thought, that the neck would be super long due to the 35” scale, but I was wrong. It looks like a standard 34” bass.

In total you build a true porn bass with no serious complains.
This is no ordinary Aerodyne clone, it is a big improvement of an iconic instrument.

GOOD JOB JERICHO
