If they are actual knobs I really like the look of low flat secondary controls as opposed to some basses that use the same knobs all over giving a knob-city kind of look.

(Zero knowledge of Fodera basses here...) | Those are switches that can be set up to do different things via internal preamp controls. They can do active/passive, frequency select for bass and mid eq knobs, single coil/dual coil, or a "kill" switch, which is a requirement for a mil spec Foderas in combat zones. http://www.fodera.com/PublicPages/ControlLayout.aspx |

Kenny's Fodera is pretty nice, for sure. I think its a Monarch.
The band bought me a Fender P.  |

J | If you guys ever want a weekend warrior to endorse your gorgeous creatures please pick me!!!!! I have the 2011 Preamp pedal and I can only dream what the entire bass would feel and sound like man oh man.

Beautifully done sir, and one helluva bass.
