Sign in to disble this ad
Up for grabs is my Fodera NYC jazz 5.
This bass has deep lows and aggressive highs that really cut through a mix the more you dig in. Very responsive and dynamic sounding. The 2 band Pope preamp allows you play in active or passive mode, and it also has a passive tone rolloff (ie "VTC"). Comes with a very nice lockable Fodera teardrop HSC w/ all case candy (papers, wrenches, etc).

$2500 shipped.

Also, the height and intonation of each bridge saddle can be separately locked with the included allen wrench. |

Good luck with the bass. |

Edit: I should have written that better. Just meant to say that maybe he wasn't interested in a bass synth, whether analog or digital. No disrespect intended to either posts. Both basses are cool.

That actually is pretty neat now that I look at it. But it is still a string short for me.
