warmoth short scale bass..?

attachment.jpg

No chance of a 34" Deluxe V version of something similar?
 
Look at the picture I posted earlier for a G4 with neck. (Or do you mean G4 singlecut?)

I believe we have a couple G4 shortscales in the shop, but they're not in the Showcase yet. No official dates yet. We've been busy with several major projects!

Sorry - should have been more specific. I meant pictures of the single cut G4 with a 32" scale neck.
 
So are there any reviews on the short scales yet? How do they play? I've been seesawing on buying a Mustang for months. I like the short scale in theory but I'm not wild about how the Mustangs play. I've got a Warmoth fretless J and the neck is like butter. So I'm real excited about these Warmoth shorties.
 
Can we expect to see these in the "builder" features, or will we at least be able to call to have one customized? I know they're new and web site alterations take time and $. It'd be great even if only by phone to have an alternative to "whatever inlays you want, as long as it's dots."

I might be doing something wrong, but couldn't find options on the short necks or Bass 6 necks, just a bunch of dotted necks in the showcase.

They will be in the builder in time. For now, you are more than welcome to call or email in.
 
Question for you...

I LOVE the new headstock design on the shortie necks - will that be available as an option for full scale P and J Bass necks ?

Sure, no problem. That's the Warhead. Call or email to get it.

BTW, here's a shot of the singlecut with neck. With lightweight tuners, it should balance pretty well. Felt good in my hands, but it isn't fully assembled.

Brilliant! Any idea when some G4 Single Cuts may show up in the showcase? Will the bodies have the same options at the regular G4 bodies?
 
I think that would look way cool. (As would a shortscale LP.)

Both would look very odd with a straight headstock, IMO. A shortscale tiltback headstock will require different fixturing to produce and takes more time to engineer. We'll need to get the basics out first and see where all of this goes!

Yes! A short scale LP for sure. Definitely have to be a tilt back HS. I have a vision of a Warmoth SG with Darkstars. Keep em comin brother.
