Selling my Fodera Anthony Jackson Contra Bass 6 Spalted Maple

Specs:
Full Spalted Maple Top
Ash Body
Ebony Board, no board markers, 24 frets
34 scale
Black Hardware
Dual Coils
Pope preamp (pre-2009)
Weight: 4,5 kg

A wonderful 6-stringer, really lightweight and easy to play even on stage.

This bass has been played a lot and was just refurbished. It is in absolutely MINT condition and super easy to play. The weight of 4.5 kg makes it comfortable to your shoulder even for long sets. The neck is flat and allows fast runs. Very low action.

The sound is quite open in the treble and even along all registers down to a deep low end. Wonderful slap tone, yet nice for chords and harmonisation work.

Original teardrop hardcase and tools included.

WITHRAWN from sale

Stunning. Me want.

I had several Fodera 6ers in my hand. This is BY FAR the most lightweight and comfortable one ...

When's it made?

Doesn't it have the original preamp?

What's the condition of the frets?

What's the string spacing and mensur?

Don't really know when it was made. Got it aftermarket..

The Preamp was updated to the genuine Fodera Pope pre (was previously Hazlab). The bass has got a full refurbish including refret so the frets are in NEW condition.

String Spacing is 19mm (could be adjustd between 18.5 and 19.5 mm). Scale is 34".

OK. Thank you.

Was it refurbished and refretted at the Fodera shop?
