Are there enough DIY bass tinkerers to make this worth my while? 

You do realise where you are, right?!!?????!!!

I'd love a 32 ins maple neck & fret board please.

[DarkHeart]

I`d be interested.

Price depending, I would be interested in a 5.

Fretted 4 is of interest, can (sort of) justify a project 32" if it's a sensible price!

[andytoad]

Id have a go in a 32” five string..

Do you have a short scale fretted for a 9 year old bass student of mine? She’s on a full size and is keen, but she’s very petite and struggling!

Looks like India will need to screw up another batch. 

[TrevorR]

Yup, sounds interesting, and after all, waste not, want not!

Unlikely!

However I think we should all applaud @Chownybass for considering bringing these instruments over. It will take just as much time, and probably more paperwork, to import them as it will take for the fully finished guitars,  and for less profit. Just start with the basics, what do you describe them as for export codes? B-stock? Kits? All hassle to think about, compared to just writing them off.  And there will be no kudos for the finished guitars as they will have to remain anonymous.

My friend has a classical guitar company. He did an order for a certain amount of guitars and the factory used some wood that was not dry. Every neck broke. He used a saw, and I happened to be around. He gave me this guit, this is probably 1/2 size, isn't it?

A 5string would be interesting depending on price, and the cost of getting it to Norway...

I’d be interested too- 4 or 5 string. Sounds like a cool project
