Alright, after 13 years I seriously consider to part with my longest Fodera keeper. There is a double bass with my name on it I guess…

 

Asking 9.000 Euro / GBP 7548

 

The bass is located in Germany.

 

Great condition: The bass has been played A LOT, but just minor playwear: some tiny lacquer spots on the top as well as a little ding on the rear at the upper horn where the flush mount strap lock is located. Pleasy check the pictures.

This bass sounds and plays absolutely killer: Low-End, punch, cuts every mix like a knife and has a very smooth buttery sound on the upper register for chords, soloing etcl


IMPORTANT: Of course the bass comes with original Truss Rod cover. It's missing in the headstock picture.

Fodera says:
Unique Features

This bass is a Monster.” Those are the words that all of us that got to hear and play this beautiful 6-string uttered out loud over and over. Designed with a selection of woods that ensures that the bass can span the entire tonal spectrum and cut through the mix beautifully, this is a six-string that can comfortably be gigged in any situation.

The combination of its 35″ scale and our Extended Low-B Headstock makes for a truly thunderous low end that expresses itself clearly and with authority. Our Fodera / Pope 2010 Preamp has been set-up to include a mid-switch that ensures even further tonal flexibility.

Oh yeah…the Maple Burl top and Birdseye fingerboard look pretty wonderful too!
