[size=4]Hi everyone, [/size]
[size=4]Up for sale is my Fodera Matt Garrison Standard. I picked this bass up in a trade a few weeks ago. It plays and sounds great but I'm just putting this up to see if there's any interest in it as I'd like to order a custom Fodera but I'd like to sell this one before I do. The bass was completed in mid December 2012. The bass is in excellent condition, the only noticeable mark on the body on the front is some small impressions and they are on the burl so are hardly noticeable. (See pic). Also a couple of small minor marks on the top of the headstock. The bass is in Cork in Ireland but I can ship to most places and it will ship in a Fodera Case with truss rod adjustment tool and all the info originally sent with it from Fodera. [/size]

For trades I'm looking for another Fodera, 4 (Monarch) or 5 string and with 33" or 34" scale.

Price is [s]£6000[/s] [size=6][color=#0000cd][u][i][b]£5100[/b][/i][/u][/color][/size]

If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Thanks for looking.

Thanks guys, yeah it really is a great bass and very similar to what I want to order in the custom bass!

Are you going to order a full custom Fodera?

Could maybe PX the MGS against it?

I've been thinking about a custom order alright, it was either that or hold out and try pick up a used Monarch, although I'd probably order a new one as I'd prefer a 33" scale.

I may have my beloved Fodera Monarch VW for trade ?

Has a few imperfections in the burl top which were present when I bought it second hand. Doesn't affect playability.

Built in 2005.

Do you know the weight of yours ?

Here's a few pics for fun.

Hey, nice Monarch!
I don't have an exact weight for the MGS but I think I'd put it right around 10lbs. Balances really well, I use a leather Levy's strap and had no problems doing a 2 hour gig.

BUMP!
I'm doing a big price drop for a few days as there's another bass I'd like to get so I'd like to find a buyer for the MGS while the other bass is still available!
