Meanwhile, at Warmoth....Chechen necks have arrived!

[aarontunes]

Warmoth announces a very limited run of rare figured Chechen necks, all cut from a single tree. Check them out here: https://goo.gl/7ZD8qJ
Chechen is a beautiful exotic wood that grows in the tropical climates of the Caribbean and Yucatan. It is a magnificent wood, prized for its tone and beauty. It is rarely harvested for guitar necks, but now for a limited time you can claim one!

Well, if that isn't what the Rock Like An Egyptian body needs, I dunno what is...

Ooh foxy lady!

 

[AirCap]

Interesting grain..... general tone of the wood?


Not to changed the subject, but has Warmoth ever done anything with Spanish Cedar? (which is neither Spanish, nor cedar)

My god... 

 

[swarfrat]

Do the funky chechen!

 

[Logrinn]

That is the most amazing figured wood I've ever seen!

Please, oh please tell me there's a bass neck or two just waiting for a web upload.  Or was the stock just too short?

Sorry....we did what we could with what we had.


Your only hope is to call it. I do know that we reserved a few blanks for custom orders. I can't guarantee any are big enough for bass, but if you truly want one I would call muy pronto, and pray.

Very attractive! Plus, you get the possibility of meeting another guitar player someday who has one of the offspring of the same Chechen tree. You'll almost be related. You can have family reunions, forget birthdays, get together at Thanksgiving and fight, all that fun stuff.

Called.  Email sent with specs.  Fingers crossed.

It's a whole new "family tree".

If only I didn't have a guitar buying moratorium for 2017...

That's not a guitar, that's a neck.  Splitting hairs, but...

 

[arealken]

Stunning! Chechen from Chichen Itza?  :icon_biggrin:

 

[T89Rex]

Wow!  :toothy10:

Slightly related, I've been thinking about bocote for a future build. What's the availability like on that? If there's no bocote on the horizon I'd be seriously tempted to jump on one of these.

Welp, looks like I'm ou of luck for a bass neck.  :-\

Could you make an electric mini-bass?
