GaryTheBassMan Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) Okay so I have this crazy body which has been laying around for a while and a load of electronics too. BUT I'm missing a neck and I cant really put any old neck in a pocket like this!! I really fancy a fretless bass so I'm thinking maybe I should try to make one...... On the other hand I dont wanna go around ruining pieces of wood and would rather like something I could play so do you guys know of any type of bass I could cannibalise to get one or anyone who could make one which wont burn too large a hole in my pocket (Im a poor student after all). Either way any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! Oh and if you have any idea were this body may have come from or who made it, that could be useful too!!

geoffbyrne Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I had a Washburn RB2000 5er that looked terribly like that - a little cracker it was too. G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey R Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 If the neck pocket is a little smaller than the replacement neck, you can reroute the pocket to match. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
