That’s really interesting, I like Fodera’s but I’ve never pulled the trigger on one because I always thought they were bright sounding, perhaps it’s because all the demos I’ve seen on them tend to emphasise on the highs 🙂
What a cool looking bass, I’d like to try it, really nice colour, I don’t like the bar though

Hope all turns out well , Just to keep your fretting hand exercised and for a different tone, have you tried playing with the thumb for a while, I quite like it myself 🙂
