Since I find 7ender necks uncomfortable/painful, has anyone built a 7ender body/TBird neck? (And why?)

The '60s MIJ Teisco Del Rey body design was riffing off of the late '50s Fender Jazzmaster and early '60s Jaguar. My Teiscobird is made from a mid-'60s Del Rey mahogany body married to an Epi Goth T-bird maple neck. In fact, it came out so good (my TSC bass) I made another one just to see if I could make two that good (which I did) and later sold it. Why build a Fender body/TBird neck? I don't entertain silly biases, that's why.

No trip to Dublin is complete without paying homage to Phil. Taken from us all too soon. My college years wouldn’t have been the same without Lizzy.
This is a great buy in the classifieds. I auditioned one of these when I got serious about buying a great head ind cab circa 2018-2019. I loved it for what it could do. I ultimately went the Mesa route. But that doesn’t diminish what I thought about these.

Just one more thing we have in common, a Hobby shop in the basement!
Sounds like a good thing to me. There's only one bass and a whole lot of everything else.

If it becomes available I will no longer love that bass. I can't.This one may hit the market later this year.................
Glad it made it to you! I start worrying when a simple journey down the coast starts turns into a detour to Vegas
yeah, from the looks of it, it may have even made a pit stop at the Bunny Ranch….Glad it made it to you! I start worrying when a simple journey down the coast starts turns into a detour to Vegas
