paulie Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Up For sale is my Fodera Monarch Elite Its a 2002 model. The bass was fully refinished by Fodera a few years ago which is when the pics on the website were taken. This basically makes an older instrument brand new as they fully strip the bass and refinish it, even replacing an scuffed or tarnished hardware etc Body: Ash with ash toneblock Finish:Tobacco burst Fingerboard: Highly figured birdseye maple with Ebony dot inlays Neck: 3 piece hard rock maple 34" scale length with 19mm spacing Fodera/Pope 3 band pre-amp Fodera/Duncan J/J vintage single coils Please see the attached link for all info and photos Note:The bass is in the exact same condition as it is on the photos in this link (except for a tiny lacquer dink that it picked up which is about 1/2 a cm across. But in the interest of full disclosure et Almost no playing wear on the bass. Tiny lacquer hairline crack in the finish behind the neck, just below the headstock. Its below the outer lacquer yet above the wood so you cannot feel it, it cant grow but it couldn't be buffed out either. You can see this in one of the photos but its so feint its hard to make out. Came from Fodera like this. Comes with HSC and all Fodera case candy. To buy this bass today from the factory the price would be $10,000 before shipping and taxes! Also a huge wait time. I may consider a trade plus cash NOTE: the bass is on display in The Gallery in Camden if you wish to view it.

Happy Jack Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 None of my business, mate, but if you're selling a bass this high up in the spectrum you might want to take some decent photos. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulie Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Due to a recent weakening of the euro against the pound, I now get more "bank for my buck" in a (pound sterling) sale As a result I do have room to manoeuvre on this price. So feel free to make a reasonable offer Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
