Klōs Carbon fibre necks

[juice]

Just seen Klōs carbon fiber necks are available through @Bass Direct has anyone tried these yet?  As a status & modulus fan I’m excited to see the emergence of another retro-fit carbon neck supplier…..

Shame they've chosen to not us the fender headstock shape, Status necks always look 'right' on a Fender, not sure these will?

I know exactly what you mean - the strangest thing for me is no stingray 4 or even better 5string neck replacements, which I think the headstock would gel with perfectly?

Feels free to come in and have a look anytime

I'd give them their dues though, at least they have a great headstock design, some brands designs I might not want to upgrade my bass to ha ha!

 

22 fret Jazz neck though, oh boy, I'd love to give one of those a try out!

They didn't because Ian Klos hates the Fender headstock. He did ask me about headstock shape and I suggested something like a status or ibanez. Which is kind of the way they went instead of the square thing on their full instruments which is a bit grim.

 

I was one of the first people to order a neck. I put it on a Warmoth G4 body. It's great.

 

Here's me messing around with it.

I did suggest they do a headless bass, but that fell on deaf ears.
