It&#8217;s a Warmoth build, purely because I&#8217;m left handed and i couldn&#8217;t get all the options I wanted in anything made by a company and yeah, I pretty much went &#8220;How hard can it be?&#8221;, started researching and 9 months later, had myself a new bass. The body, swamp ash with a flame maple top, and neck, hard rock maple with an Indian rosewood fretboard, are from Warmoth as well as some minor bits of hardware. They&#8217;re pretty standard except for a contoured heel and the 24 fret neck. Then I&#8217;ve gotten the Hipshot ultralight tuners, a Hipshot A-style bridge, a piar of DiMarzio ultra jazz pick ups and an Aguilar OPB-3 preamp all from you guys at BBG<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1639 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0024.jpg'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0024-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0024-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0024-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0030.jpg'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0030-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0030-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0030-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0032.jpg'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0032-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0032-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0032-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0078.jpg'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0078-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0078-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0078-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0079.jpg'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0079-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0079-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMAG0079-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Featuring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/hipshot-ultralight-tuners.htm\">Hipshot Ultralight Tuners<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/hipshot-bass-bridges.htm\">Hipshot A-Style Bridge<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/dimarzio-pickups.htm\">DiMarzio Ultra Jazz Pickups<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Swamp Ash body with Flame Maple top<\/li>\n<li>Hard Rock Maple Neck<\/li>\n<li>Indian Rosewood Fetboard<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Rob couldn&#8217;t order the left-handed Warmoth exactly how he wanted he decided to try and build it.
