Warmoth the 3rd - The Body Has Arrived!

[hannaugh]

The short scale bass is officially happening now.  I just picked this up from the showcase, gonna go with tortise shell pickguard and 2 J-shape pickups. I will post pics when it arrives.   I'm so excited!   :toothy10: :toothy10: :toothy10:

UPDATE:

 

[elfro89]

Daphne blue is my favourite colour of fender colours, that and surf green!  :toothy10:

Very nice!

 

[Cagey]

Classic! The standard by which all others are judged. You should be very happy.

 

[Corey P.]

Great choices all around!  :icon_thumright:

 

[bagman67]

Color me jealous.  Which, contrary to popular belief, is more Daphne Blue than green.

Nice choice.

I almost snagged this one instead, but in the end, I liked them about the same and the Daphne Blue was less expensive.  Plus I already have 2 Warmoths with transparent finish on a maple top.  Gotta change it up once in a while.  :icon_tongue:

neck?

OR will you order a custom build? (may I suggest all-pau-ferro?  :icon_biggrin: )

 

[hannaugh]

I'm either going all Pau Ferro or Bubinga with a Pau Ferro fretboard.  It's gonna be sweet and super smooth.  I would rather have all pau ferro, but there's a $100 price difference there, so we'll see.

Sweet body.  Bubinga makes a great neck wood.  Let me know if you need advice for the pickups.

Nice bass - I wouldn't mind making one of these myself - maybe next projec  t!  ccasion14:

Nice Hannaugh. Are you going with 32" or 30"?

 

[hannaugh]

30" for my wee little hands. 

 

[baskruit]

Daphne Blue + Tortoise = Classic. Great choice Hannaugh.

What's that, UPS Quantum View?  Something is arriving from WA on Thursday?  :toothy12: 

My Taylor should arrive on Wednesday, and a Warmoth bass body on Thursday.  This is the best week ever!  Counting down the hours...

 

[Mor Paul]

awesome.

 

[Cagey]

Geez. You must be peeing your pants dancing like somebody who's really excited <grin>

 

[Patrick from Davis]

I like it.  I want a Daphne Blue, Surf Green, and a Fiesta Red trio.  That one looks very nice, I am sure you'll have a blast with it once you complete it.

Being that you're out there in LaLaLand, Tinseltown, the leaders of the known universe, breaking point on the advancement of peoplekind as it were, I hope you're going to go all multi-branding on it and: write a blog about building your bass; make a video; draw a cartoon; use these as a chisel to carve out the next great girlie band; have you thought about your fragrance yet? If you need a band name I've got pages of 'em, available for a small percentage of future earnings & minimal down payment; Lady GaGa backwards is just Ydal AgAg after all.

Nah I'll just join the Spice Girls.  My name will be Actual Musician Spice.
