Cairobill Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) I'm entering one of those 'find a purpose for those nice jazz bass bits and pieces in a box under the bed' phases. I will likely go for a status fretless neck but where do I get a high quality, finished, ash, jazz bass body in the UK? There are a bunch of obvious sources but I'm looking for the good stuff Cheers, Nick Edited July 21, 2021 by Cairobill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairobill Posted July 21, 2021 Author Share Posted July 21, 2021 Thanks - northwest look quite inexpensive. How's the quality? Anyone used one of their J bass bodies in a build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Can't attest to the quality of their Jazz bodies, but their Jazz necks are beautiful - I doubt you'll have any issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I've just taken a punt on a fully finished custom P bass body from G&B Guitar & Bass Builds https://guitarandbassbuilds.com Can't attest for their quality yet as my delivery might be as much as 45-60 working days 🤔 so I will not see mine until mid/end of September. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate got this body from the same place. I can attest that it's a beaut! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comms with the company were spot on, but you never know. You’ve gone along way to allaying my fears. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
