    I sent an email in. Let’s see if that brings me any luck.

    Short Scale Bass Body Blanks?

    Does Warmoth sell body blanks for short scale basses? The blanks are for a 34 inch scale bass and I'd like at least a 32 inch scale.

    If you sent me the bass body that I'm hoping to order soon I'll create a video a week singing your praises.

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    I think that I found what I wanted! Well, visually at least. I was looking around and I stumbled upon the Candy Tangerine color. It looked fun and I thought about pairing it with a black pickguard. I was in love. I began to plan how the bass would look using chrome hardware and all of that...

    Gotcha. I'm wanting to go all black but the big chrome humbucker in the bridge position just seems like it won't jibe.

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    Two more questions: 1. When ordering a body made of alder, does it make sense to get an alder top laminate or would just the body look good with a solid color finish on top and no laminate? 2. I'm in love with the light yellow color. It looks like the Buttercream color that is on the new...

    Christmas wish list!

    A bass neck with a 2x2 headstock that fits Fender-style bodies. I don't think the Gecko necks do this, and I'm not in love with that headstock design. EDIT: I just discovered the Warmoth 2x2 style necks. The headstock isn't my cup of tea but I'm still an idiot. Ignore this request please!

    Custom neck plate ordered and strap locks purchased. Next week I buy a battery box and a few more things. Heavy lifting as far as purchases begin in late January/early February. Too early to start a work in progress thread but it’s happening. Yes!!

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    EXACTLY. Plus realizing that this is probably the last bass I'll buy (I know, never say never) and making it something special is sort of helping me with the timeframe and being open to rethinking my approach to the look of the bass and woods and things like that. I've sort of come to the...

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    That's the one I should use with the Darkstar/Bisonic? Score! I'm really considering doing this with a small pickguard (a la the pickguards on the Serek Midwestern bass) or no pickguard at all and getting a nice Flame Maple top. Buying the small parts now and ordering the pickup after...

    Ordered a neck plate this AM. Strings I have an extra set of roundwounds that will go on. I'm ordering this wiring set up from Audere in two weeks, right after I talk to Curtis from CurtisNovak.com about the pickup to make sure that is the right thing that I need for the pickup. Will that...

    This is selfish: routing for the Darkstar pickup to return.

    That's Flame Maple? What finish did you choose? EDIT: I forgot to say that is an absolutely GORGEOUS guitar.

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    Okay two quick questions: I'm leaning towards getting a Swamp Ash body with a Flame Maple laminate top. I can get the Flame Maple in the builder and NOT have to choose the specific piece from Unique Choices option in the builder, right? I'd love to get a gorgeous piece of wood, but I don't...

    That is such a gorgeous piece of wood. I'm looking forward to seeing this build.

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    I think I'm going to go with regular Swamp Ash and with either a Quilt or a Flame Maple top. I might just splurge. I'm sort of torn between getting a classic-looking Fender-style paint job or a gorgeous piece of wood as the star type of finish (I call those PRS finishes). Oh well, I have...

    Help a Neurotic Dude with a Bass Build!

    Posted about my situation on Facebook and a gearhead friend recommended a local luthier to me that is used by a few local music stores, which is a good thing because Warmoth said that they didn't route for the Bisonic pickups or the pickguards. The guy messaged me and after I described what I...

    Thanks for the info! I'm going to put in a call to Warmoth on my lunch break today to gather someinformation about what (if anything) can be done in-house by them. I didn't see that option on the screen. Maybe they can dig out the plans or something for me. As far as the neck stuff you...
