  1. Thanks. Yes, it is even more breathtaking if you could see it in person. Just made a fresh surface lifting with Carnauba wax and the Buckeye top developed a 3-dimensional flame pattern... really nice. I love these Amber Buckeye colours.

  3. Pedulla Thunderbuzz ET6F Zebrawood Top 34" Fretless Specs: Zebrawood top Flamed Maple body 5-pc laminate neck neck Ebony board with lines and dots, gloss finished 34 scale Dual action truss rod Gold hardware 18mm spacing at bridge Soapbar pickups made for Pedulla by Bartolini Controls: volume, pan, bass boost/cut, treble boost/cut, Thunderguts low mid switch (toggle) Oil urethane satin finish Built 1996 (serial 59xx) Weight 4.6 kg Pedulla fretless basses are well known and sought after all over the world for their smooth and singing, yet pronounced and responsive sound, prefered by some of the top fretless players. And this particular 6-string is a wonderful proof of this reputation - construction-wise similar to the popular Pentabuzz and Hexabuzz models, but with its wooden upgrades a step up in quality (and price range). The playability is excellent with low action. The B is strong and growly and VERY well defined which is not common for fretless basses. It is so easy to get a singing MWAH out of it as well as a Manring or Jaco-like staccato fusion fretless sound. The bass is in excellent condition and you won't believe that it is from 1996 - no dings on the neck and body. As always on these boards the finish shows distinctly the use of Roundwonds, which I tried to point out in the pics. The board finish was chipped out on very small areas along the sides of the neck - also shown in the pics. But this is not affecting playability in any way and the board has plenty of life on it as it is. Comes in its original hardcase and with the original truss rod tool. Retail price of these models today is >6000 USD, which does not include shipping and tax.

  4. Fodera Emperor II 5 Buckeye Burl Top 35" DN Board Specs: Presentation Grade Buckeye Burl Full Top Alder Body Maple neck 21 frets Ash tone block (not sure...) DN board (1000 USD upgrade) 35 scale Gold Hardware 19mm spacing at bridge, adjustable +/- 0,5mm Duncan Single Coils Pope preamp Weight: 4.6 kg OHSC+Tools Built year around 2002 This bass has a retail price of 12.500 USD (+shipping and customs). Condition is excellent - probably some scuffing on the surface but no dings or dongs. The gold bridge shows some lighter fading from Palm muting. This is a wonderful resonant and explosive, yet organic sounding Fodera. With its special board, slap-friendly 21 frets, the Alder body and the Single Coils it has a solid base in classical concepts, multiplied by stellar Fodera attributes it results in a world-class bass for Jazz Bass lovers. Action could be setup extremely low without buzz. SOLD
  5. Still available ! Reasonable cash offers always welcome.
  6. No access to your g-drive. So no pics for me. May be that others have the same problem ...;-) Nice bass - I believe.
  7. For sale or trade is my Pedulla MVP5. Aesthetically CCC, but technically in 100% working consition. Scratches, dings and dongs all over the bass, although the neck feels great and none of the damages are affecting playability or sound. The bass is from early 90s and features the Bartolini PJ pickups with a Bartolini 2-Bd. preamp. The bridge is the 3way-Schaller from that era. Common Gotoh Tuners. Everything works fine. The frets are in top condition so the action could be set quite low. Bass is traded :-)
  8. To me the electronics don't look untouched. The pots are from different sources and the solderings on the back are renewed. What is the story behind this ? Unfortunately most of the pics are not sharp enough to determine whether the finish is really factory original. Even then it would be difficult with CAR finishes as they fade and crackle differently from others. Is there something engraved into the surface under the booklet on the last picture ? The booklet unfortunately hides most of the body area around the neck ... Do you have a pic from the neck pocket ? Nice bass though.
  9. In the past two weeks I came to my senses and fell in love again with this little unit. Especially with my old Fenders it sounds breathtaking good. So this is withdrawn for now. Thanks for your interest and posts.
  10. Just bought Jordi's Fodera Emperor 4. Was a pleasure to deal with him. Fantastic bass, well packed and always straight communication. Highly recommended !
  11. Still available !
  12. Thanks guys ! Bart, hope you are well down there in Uruguay and you still have fun playin basses :-)
  13. SOLD PENDING ... For sale is my original vintage Fender Jazz Bass 1966 Custom Colour Black with Matching Headstock.

  17. Feeler thread: I am considering to sell also the second one of my Fodera Matt Garrison 5s: Specs: Walnut Body Alder Tone Block Buckeye Burl Top (Non-Solid) Birdseye Maple Fingerboard 3-pc. Ash Neck Abalone Dot Inlays Birth Date – July 2012 33″ Scale Length 17.5mm Spacing 26 Frets (Small) Fodera / Pope Custom 3-Band Preamp Fodera / Duncan Dual Coils The bass is virtually new except of a fading on the black bridge around the E and A string (from palm muting play).

  19. Not sure what I am doing here but I consider to part with my wonderful Jule De-Monique. I purchased this unit at the end of last year at bassgear and since then I kept it in my home, playing it from time to time at low volume, so it is virtually brand new. These wonderful sounding amps receive thousands of enthusiastic comments from US players at talkbass. And indeed it sounds so juicy and meaty, especially with old Fenders as I never heard before (and I tried a lot of high end tube amps). Although I prefer my Epifani stack all the time - which is a totally different animal. This Jule amp should be played instead of collecting dust. The De-Monique is the rack version of the famous Monique all tube preamp, with an embedded Demeter Minnie 800D amp, providing 800W raw power in a comfy lightweight package. WITHDRAWN
