BASSWOOD GUITAR BODY BLANK BLOCK — premium-quality part from Janika.co.uk. A piece of hardwood suitable for an electric or bass guitar body.
The material is basswood which can also be called lime.
Basswood is one of the most common materials used for guitar bodies.
This wood has a nice light grain which can be stained and varnished. Alternatively it can be painted.
It is difficult to show the grain well in a photograph.
The blocks that I sell are made of several planks ( 3 or 4) planed and glued together, then both sides planed smooth. The result is quite a large piece that is sufficient for most electric guitar or bass guitar bodies.
The pieces are cut with a guitar body in mind, so one side is often wider than the other and the bottom plank is usually left longer than the top one. If you need exact dimensions then please ask before you purchase, but typically you can expect 34cm across back, 31cm across front, 51cm long bottom 48cm along top and 43mm thick.
The weight of the block is around 3.5kg rnrnrnrnrnrn Designed for reliable daily use, it offers dependable performance and peace of mind for studio, stage and home setups. Compatible with standard fittings where applicable; perfect as a replacement, spare or upgrade for musicians and builders.
