I'm a huge fan of the futuristic/retro thing they're going for right now, definitely agree it can be marmite though.
-
Or a Mega Bastard?
-
Still 30W, and it has Two Notes tech built in so it can run headphones and/or DI without a speaker load and has cab/speaker SIM when used in that style. I absolutely love this new design, I hope it filters through into the other products too!
-
Lovely, so good to see these things coming to life.

I remember speaking to someone via Instagram who replaced the fan in their ABM for a high spec PC one, with the same size and voltage requirements. It was whisper quiet by comparison, and when I say high spec, it was still only about £20. I might do it in the future, but to be fair to Ashdown, how many people who buy a 600W ABM are that interested in playing along with an acoustic set up? These amps are for loud stage use, they make plenty of smaller, and probably quieter amps and combos for when a lighter touch is required, no? Eude

Oh wow, that's a really cool spec. Love to see more and more shorter 6 string basses out there too. Since I moved to 31.5" I've never looked back. I hope you share a lot of pics etcs when it finally lands! Cheers, Eude

Dirk Lance especially.
-
Wow, I guess these things are worth whatever people are willing to pay. What specs have you gone for on your Fodera? Eude

The G6, the guitard version goes for about £350 now, so I expect that price will drop quickly. I was saying to @Merton, if they get the price right, they could have a big seller on their hands, but if it's more or even the same as a Helix Stomp they may as well forget about it. Eude

Absolutely Gorgeous! Fantastic work buddy. Eude
-
Nice update. I'd be really interested to hear how it performs in a gig situation! Cheers, Eude
-
Always happy to help buddy!
-
Oooft, that went quickly! -
Very much looking forward to this bass coming to life! It's going to be stunning! Eude

I'm glad to hear this to be honest, if a player has to pay for an instrument, then you can be confident that they actually "endorse" the brand, rather than just selling out for free stuff. It's easy, or easier, for factory line bass manufacturers to give stuff away, as the cost to them is nothing compared to investment, time and effort that goes into a handmade instrument. Eude

Wow! Seriously!? I know they'd topped €10,000 but that is a crazy jump! I remember buying Thumb BO 5er in the late 90's for £1300, hand made in Germany, roughly the same thing now would be £3700! They are incredible instruments, and I'll bet their custom stuff is out of this world, but again, wow! Eude
-
Warwick's custom prices are now seriously silly, but, they're not quite Fodera silly, yet I guess if folks are willing to pay though, they will charge what they want. If I won lottery money, I'd certainly give Hans P Wilfer a call about a short scale 6 string Dolphin... Eude

I watched that whole gig the other day and really enjoyed it! I've always rated We Borland, and Durst has still totally got it. I believe the main reason for Sam Rivers changing basses is the weight, he's not in great shape physically from what I've heard, his back really can't handle a weight of a Warwick these days. Still sounds like him too. Eude
-
I would love to try the wooden cabs, I actually prefer the look of them to the Aero ones, but I can appreciate just how insanely well designed and made the carbon cabs are. I just prefer the aesthetic (and price 😉) of the wooden ones...
-
The one on the right looks pants, I don't mind the one on the left though. Those basses are always going to sound like Ryan, because of his playing style and the fact the pickup placement is identical to the Thumb Bass. I think it's a bit of a shame though, I've always loved the look and the sound of Thumb Basses, and I think they look way cooler than those Foderas. I wonder what amp he's using with it, he's used Warwick amps forever too... Eude
-
I don't think it's the Aero stuff, it's their regular wooden cabs, which are meant to be bloody marvelous too by the way.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
eude replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
Thank you for that! The EKO on the whole sounds the best to my ears, but I think the SG has the edge when the neck pickup is soloed and the tone rolled off. Wonderful basses dude, enjoy! Eude -
I expect folks will likely pair their Digbeth heads with BF cabs as you can get a similar look and they'll be half the weight of the Laney cabs, which is a shame.
-
Total sense, that's how I asked Alan to make it It's a super comfortable bass! -
Wow, my old Finn 6er! You've taken amazing care of it, it's an incredible bass too. If I hadn't moved to even shorter scales, I'd be seriously tempted to buy it back. Just for reference, something similar these days would likely be over £3k now, but absolutely worth every penny Best of luck with the sale! Cheers, Eude
