But,...
I'm no longer married. But the bass is still mine!!!

Thinking about a Walnut Burl/Quilted maple or Ash YYD. Now you have me thinking

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2011 Location: Maryland | | | That bass is the most AWESOME thing that I've ever own in my life, including music gear of any kind, European cars and European motorcycles.
Everywhere we go I pull it out and people, bass player and non-bass players, just lose their minds. The details are amazing.
The only way I could be luckier is if Halle Berry wanted to hook up and showed up with a Fodera Yin Yang Imperial fretless with the same woods but in opposite position. Wow! That just gave me the idea for my next Fodera,...and Halle Berry(but I can't share that thought here).
The guys and girls at Fodera are amazing. We know Vinnie and Joey are. But everyone there is amazing.
peace,

| | Registered User | | | | THAT's how you're supposed to feel when you get a new bass!
I'm sure the bass feels just as lucky to have ended up with you as it's owner.  |

|  | Registered User | | | | | Nice spacing, but wow, that's a wide neck. I prefer the wide spacing for getting fingers in and out. Given that trade off, seems fair.
The darker buckeye stain seems more like old growth Redwood burl than the buckeye. The more fungusy buckeye would had been interesting as well with a lighter buckeye. Merge 2 different slabs of aesthetic top wood. Or is that what was done??

I not only pick out the kinds of woods I wanted for the bass but I picked the actual pieces of woods. I had about 20 pieces of buckeye in front of me. A whole lot of different woods would have been interesting. But I got the pieces I wanted.
peace,

| | | | wow that bass is simply ridiculous..!!! I would love to own a 4 string version!
Im honestly not sure if this is a rude or inappropriate question but how about much does a bass like that go for?
money won't buy happiness but man i would be happy if i had that bass lol
