thebassist Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) This Fodera Koa Monarch 6 Bolt-On is a unique and rare design. 6 strings, 33" scale length and 16.5mm bridge spacing make this the most compact 6-er Fodera build allowing the player to access all of the benefits of an extended-range instrument with maximum ease and comfort. Fast solo runs, deep pocket grooves, chording in the upper register; This bass handles it all and with authority. A mahogany body and ebony fingerboard give this bass a clear and well balanced tone with a bell-like upper register. I've photographed two small marks near the lower horn. Other than that, it's pretty much bang on. Weight according to my bathroom scales is 10.4 pounds. I'm based in Bournemouth, Dorset. No trades. Local pick up preferred but I would ship fully insured at the buyers expense.

ambient Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 I've played this a couple of times. It really is an amazing bass to play.
ambient Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Adam is a great guy to deal with. So buy with confidence.
JensWest Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 OMG. Wish I still had my Black Tiger 6 to offer.
moooper Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 I've played the bass as well it's a really stunning one. Good luck with the sale
Hellzero Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 The beautifullest Fodera I've ever seen. And light, for once. But not for me, as I'm more into 35 or 36 inches scales... GLWYS.
JensWest Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 [quote name='charlybasse' timestamp='1486394058' post='3231379'] I can't stop watching it [/quote] Me neither. Have a bump!
ambient Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I thought this would have been snapped up straight away.
laranjo Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Wow... money where are you!? Good luck on your sale.
GeorgeL94 Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Oh my god, thats incredible. Thats a ridiculously good price too, people are selling lower spec Fodera's on here for much more. I have an emperor deluxe 5, these basses are worth there money, if you can afford people, do it.

Hellzero Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 I think it's missing two strings to be interesting, but who knows... ;-)
