factory seconds or just plain uuuuugly bodies that no-one wanted?
i keep holding out for tobacco sunburst or blue staining to replace the body on my half mexican strat, but only ever see black, green-burst or tequila sunburst (which is a kind of orange to yellow bursting that requires sunglasses...)
I did a search on it and realized it's the closeouts they always have. There have been plenty of times when I didn't come up with much, but they often have shorty necks and off models. Look at the double trouble Jag-stang body for $145!
Some guy on RR modified a sharkfin body to look more surfy. The guitar itself was only $109, so cost-wise, he did pretty well, But it's hard to beat $150 for a JS.

There's also a rear routed JAZZY body. When they say rear routed, I think they mean sodomy and the lash.
When I built my Swinger I looked at the Warmoth bodies and that upper horn just doesn't look right. It's a goofy looking body style to begin with and I don't know where they got the tracing from, but it's way off.

You're right. I didn't notice that. It is way off.
