Totally cool. Just beautiful.
That is one beautiful bass.
What do those pickups sound like? They have had me intrigued for some time
I really like the extenders. They are very versatile. It has a Glockenklang preamp. With that combo it can be anywhere from soft and pretty to fat and meaty.
@Shibata, what are the neck thickness and fretboard radius?
nice. that bass looks like it weighs 4 lbs ![]()
Thanks. It’s actually heavier than it looks at just over 8lbs. Still pretty light though.
That thing makes me feel good. Nice rig ya got there, my friend!
So it has a compound neck radius, correct?
And inches work fine for me.
A little premature, but I’ve paid for it. My custom 50s bass from Joe Cucci
(Custom Built 54 P Bass - Warmoth Body - Bolivian | Reverb)
Now for shipping and waiting - the worst
I love that @Wombat-metal.
It’s absolutely beautiful and the VFM is off the scale.
If I was stateside, I’d be having a chat with Joe myself.
This is from the listing. Annoyingly the measurements are in inches.
I hate when measurements are expressed as a decimal of an inch. Pick one system or the other.
I paid quite a bit less than the listed amount, he posted it at a higher amount “so it wouldn’t sell” and I made an offer for the agreed on price. Like that wouldn’t sell at $899
That Freestone neck is awesome. I have one on my 54P but it isn’t as pretty as yours. Good score. You’ll love it.
He has to do that for Reverb when he is making a deal. If it sounds as good as it looks, it will be like thunder
I still can’t figure how he does it for the prices you and I have paid. When I priced what he built for me I was well over $1,000 without figuring labor and using a few used parts.
This one is all your fault @EddieJones I blame you ![]()
If I had room in my rack I would copycat Thai bass exactly @Wombat-metal !
Well done.
Beautiful.
Congrats, @Wombat-metal. Your Tele bass arsenal is growing.
Thanks. I am moderately excited. Now I need to find a strap
Yup. All I need now is a Tele MM bass. I can get one from Warmoth ![]()
MM is not my vibe. I might do a build in 6 months or so and do a bass for my Delano big pole split P. That would look nice
