Finally I am get around to posting...

I just want to say hey to everyone and that your awesome builds/knowledge/skills have contributed to my warmoth "fever." After a few months of research and saving up money I finally got the body I want...here are the stats:

5 string Z Body
Swamp Ash
2 MM pickup routes
Contoured Heel

I am looking forward to working on this project. I plan on finishing the body with tung oil (which is something I have never done before). This build will take me some time because I just found out my wife is pregnant :toothy10: ...gotta save money. Eventually, I plan on ordering a wenge/ebony neck, aguilar pre-amp, and seymour duncan pickups. I not sure I will do this, but I want to also make a custom metal pickguard, either a slightly rusted steel one or somthing out of copper...but that will be at the end. Maybe. Best of luck to y'all in your builds and I will definitely be seeking your knowledge on mine.

 
Hello Ruckus.  Welcome to the forum.  I too am fairly new, but welcome anyway.  Another bassbuilder, good.  We just lost one yesterday, he "could'nt take the pressure" - Ace Ventura .  Neat project you got there.
 
I have always loved the Z body shape...
Interesting to see it with a bass.
Good luck and welcome to the forum.
I will wait with baited breath to see future pics.
:rock-on:
