PRICE DROP - £5000 ono

Hi guys,

For sale is my stunning series 1 Fodera MGS #46, signed by Joey Lauricella.

I picked this instrument up last year and it is honestly the best bass I have ever had the pleasure of playing and owning.

This bass is in 100% as new condition, It is ABSOLUTELY MINT . It has been cared for and maintained meticulously. Recently oiled and restrung with the Fodera 100-28 set.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Specs of the bass can be found here:

The series II, shown in the link (virtually the same bass) features a madagascan kingwood board and a madrone burl top -

My bass being the series 1, features a pau ferro board and a box elder burl top.

Comes with original hard case - also in perfect condition, with case candy
Thanks for reading,

Peter

That is lush. I play 5's less than 50% of the time so can't really justify the purchase, but that is truly lovely. GLWTS.

It's funny, I don't really consider it a 5, as the business end is just a low E rather than a low B getting in the way. It's easier to 'ignore' the high C if it's not appropriate for your gig :)

That's a genuine "first world problem" there Si if ever I heard one. Spend £6k on a bass and ignore one of the strings :-)

Yeah, I know what you mean. Actually, think I'll order myself a Fodera 5 string so I can just use the B as a thumb-rest :-)

I'm putting this up again,

A long and short story - my [url="http://fodera.smugmug.com/Newborn-Gallery-Vol-IV/Newborn-1060/"]http://fodera.smugmu...V/Newborn-1060/[/url] was recently finished and landed in my hands last thursday (2nd)..

Originally, I decided I would hold sell my MGS to front the rest of the money together for the custom but some last minute wizardry and I managed to get the money together for the custom and still able to hold on to this ..

The new imperial came and surpassed all expectation..

Following a brief few words with Christian H .. I had a stark realisation that I really don't need two imperials with a close spec like this so its a conundrum that lies somewhere between 'lucky/fortunate' and 'immoral/unnecessary'..

.. So really, I'm freeing up some funds here.. I'm in no rush to sell but would prefer a cash sale as I have my eyes on another instrument..

The only things of interest are:

FODERA 4's and 6's (would love a deluxe). ALLEVA 5's. VINTAGE FENDER (60's P's).

Apologies for the essay, just wanted clarification for anybody wondering!

Thanks guys
