Hi guys,
my next Warmoth project will be a Jazz Bass 4 String, i already settled on swamp ash for the body and flame maple / flame maple neck.
Tonewise i want this one to be a punchy funker, but it should also do fingerstyle funk pretty well..
I own a chambered warmoth tele already, and this thing is pure tonal bliss, so i tend to go for a chambered jazz bass body too.
With that i might put on a flame maple cap as the price is the same and the reduced weight is also very nice!
I have no problem with losing a tiny little bit of those high treble frequencies, my only concern is, that the attack that's needed for a punchy jb tone might get lost a little because of the chambered body.. Or will it rather be the other way around and the chambered body will make the notes pop out even more?
What do you guys think about that?
Thanks! ccasion14:
