Every once in a long while, the tulipwood fairy waves her magic wand over the Warmoth factory, and something magical pops out.  For example, this lovely bass neck:

Lovely piece, apart from the tulipwood the quartersawn flame maple is also very nice indeed.

 

[ghotiphry]

Very nice piece is right. But gloss? Pass.  :confused4:

Very nice figuring on that redwood top. Congrats.

 

[Cagey]

Indeed! She's a beauty!

 

[BigSteve22]

Nice pick up! Gonna keep this one, I hope?  ???

Black Ebony over roasted Maple.

Black Ebony over roasted Maple.

.
I think I'd go with Macassar Ebony over Mahogany. Keep the color of the back close, and bring a little interest to the fretboard without taking away from the Redwood. Although, I gotta agree with Kevin that Roasted Maple might also work well there, especially the new darker colored crop. But hey, your axe, your choice, what ever floats your boat.  :icon_thumright:

 

[bassetman]

Never tried the macasserr ebony but the roast maple is a big favaorite.....ill order a neck today.....when I can’t decide I default to Birdseye maple. I’d love a ziricote shaft neck but that would be  Spendy as the fingerboards are scarey expensive.

 

[BigSteve22]

Sounds good, don't forget the "Just-Out-Of-The-Box" pics!

 

[bassetman]

The body should arrive next week the neck is custom will take a few weeks. :turtle:

 

[Logrinn]

The latest body in the Showcase in the Featured category. Are we seeing a new thing here? A new body option?

 

[rgand]

The rosewood is mighty nice. The maple stripe down the back is cool but I'm surprised it wasn't run all the way through. It'll make a fine guitar.

 

[Logrinn]

How's this for a spectacular Mustang neck?

 

[rgand]

That's a nice one. It would make a great neck for a black burst 7/8 Strat build.
