SOLD! - 1-piece Swamp Ash P5 body for VRB or Heritage

[Rodent]

This body is SOLD! and will be turning into a VRB-M5F lefty in the weeks to come.

I have a 1-piece Swamp Ash P5 body available for a project, should anyone be interested. this specific body is super light, and has glass worm squiggles (not to be confused with actual worm holes) that make it an excellent candidate for a clear or transparent amber 'vintage' finish



the neck pocket is routed for a 34" 22-fret neck with either a 17.5mm or 18mm bridge spacing. other features of this body include:

- vintage style 1-5/8" thick body with 3/8"R round over
- tummy contour
- currently has no arm contour, but this can easily be added
- rear contour at the lower horn and a contoured heel for super easy upper fret access
- ferrule mounts for the neck attachment
- trussrod adjustment slot at neck pocket heel
- no pickup or control cavity routings yet so it can be customized to suit your pickup configuration and choice of top or rear routed controls
- actual weight weight to be posted here in the coming day

if someone was considering a VRB-P5 or Heritage style build, this is a great opportunity to snag a killer 1-piece body for a custom build. I don't often have a body available in advance of a build, but due to some interesting circumstances this one has become available

note that I am not selling this body alone as a part. this body is only available as a completed Regenerate custom build

all the best,

R

Very nice Rod! Does it have to be used for a 5 string bass?

[Rodent]

yes, this specific body has a 5-string sized neck pocket that couldn't cleanly be modified down to a 4-string without also utilizing an opaque body finish. I have other light weight Swamp Ash 1-piece blanks available, and these could be used for either a 4 or 5-string builds

I have this body availabe due to dual sourcing the design for a customer lefty build. the client preferred the figuring on the other body for the finish he's chosen, so this one became available for a different project

all the best,
