hamfist Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) WITHDRAWN For sale is one highly customised P bass body. Made from solid African Mahogany, probably Utile. Stained in a deep red mahogany stain, then Danish oil and wax. It's a relatively lightweight, yet very hard wood. I've found it to give quite a resonant and "spanky" tone. The body is 36mm thick which also adds to it's relatively lightweight feel (approx. 1.7-1.8kg). Routed for two P pickups, the bridge rout being pretty much in the Stingray sweetspot. The control compartment has been enlarged and will now take a fairly decent amount of electronics. Also added is a rear-accessed battery compartment and black cavity cover. Also included is the custom tort scratchplate, which is subtly enlarged compared to the Fender standard around the control cavity to cover the wider cavity. The scratchplate currently has holes to take 4 x pots. Included with the body is a stereo barrel jack. Also included is a standard Fender-sized neck plate and neck screws. The body was originally drilled for a smaller neck hole pattern than the Fender standard, which is why there are two extra holes to allow the standard Fender neck hole pattern. The heel slot is bang on 2.5" (63mm) in width and is a bog standard Fender sized slot though. The Bridge holes are in the standard Fender 5 hole pattern (plus two at the front of the bridge .... which should be covered by the bridge plate if you want to use a bridge with just the rear 5 holes). £47 posted to your door in mainland UK. A Great body for a project. Here's the pics with and without the scratchplate.
