electriccheese Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) I'm selling this 2002 Fodera Monarch Elite 4 strings. Here are the specs: [url="http://www.fodera.com/Main/NewBornDetails.aspx?FeaturedItemID=211"]http://www.fodera.co...turedItemID=211[/url] Pics: [url="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm170/popibass/Fodera%20Monarch%20Elite/"]http://s296.photobuc...onarch%20Elite/[/url] The bass has been sold as a Certified Preowned last year, so it seems like new. Frets have no wear, neck is straight and stable, hardware and finish are in very good condition. Tuners, bridge and pickups are one year old. The preamp is from an Emperor, it's an older version, from 1997, but works perfect in this bass. The bass weights 4,0kg, and balances excelently. It sounds like a 70's jazz in a refined version, very easy to play. Doesn't have dead spots or fret buzz, can be adjusted with ridiculously low action. The neck is slim front to back. The bad things: The finish have a very thin crack rear the nut, occurred when the bass was shipped to me. There's a pic where it can be seen. The EQ pots are (up to down) Treble, Mid, Bass, the contrary than is usual on Foderas. Sold I'm sorry if something it's not well explained, my English is not very good...

I like it a lot, it's a more traditional looking and sounding Fodera, but play as smooth as any other, and it's pretty versatile as well. The Elite construction allows little height from the body to the fingerboard, like a jazz bass with the pickguard on, and for me it's very comfortable to slap... Is the perfect complement to my Alder-rosewood emperor, but I can't afford owning both... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
