Overview

30" Scale Warhead Necks

Short scale basses have a great vibe that comes from the shorter reach and lower string tension. With Warmoth's wood and finish options, you can go for that vintage look and sound or a more modern appearance. Our short scale basses are built using the same craftsmanship and attention to detail as our full size bodies and necks.

30" Scale Warhead Necks

  • Short Scale bodies and necks provide the same rich tone as our 34" scale bass offerings
  • Shorter distance between frets for an easier reach.
  • Lower tension and less reach than a standard size bass.
  • Built with our double expanding truss rod. Does not include our steel stiffening rods.
