sockdeluxe_mikey Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hi everyone! A while back, I got some advice on who makes bodies in the UK as I've been looking for a jazz bass body for quite some time. I got some really good advice, especially an e-mail address of somebody on here who makes really good quality bodies. However, I've a) lost the e-mail, and lost the thread so, I ask the identical question again - who makes good value, quality bodies in the UK (and definitely including members on Basschat)? Thanks everyone, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommorichards Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I too would be interested to know who around here can knock up a bass body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffbyrne Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Certainly Rich (Ou7shined) up in frosty Aberdeenshire(!!) will do a great job, and I've found Jon Letts again www.lettsbasses.co.uk in Leicester.

TheGreek Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I recently had a custom built by Mark Wood in Leicester - beautiful piece of Cherry and very reasonably priced - I'm sure that he would build you something..

Rumple Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 You could try Basschats Bass Doc or Henry Norton, I have a Bass Doc Jazz 5 body. R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 You'll get lots of +1's from the North Eastern contingent for BassDoc Howard, who whilst being a living legend in these parts, is also a thoroughly nice bloke as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
