Up for sale is my Fodera Imperial 5 with the MG body shape. This bass is killer with a big, punchy low end, clear mid and sweet highs. The B string is tight and sounds massive. All around a killer bass.

Body Woods
-Imperial (MG Shape)
-Walnut Body
-Alder Tone Block
-Maple Burl Top (Solid)
Neck Woods
-Madagascar Kingwood Fingerboard
-3-pc. Hard Rock Maple
-Mother-of-Pearl Dot Inlays
Construction Specs
-Birth Date – April 2014

10.75 lbs.
The bass is in overall great condition. There are some tiny nicks and dings that are hard to even see in photos (one is visible in the rear closeup towards the middle bottom) that are not a big deal at all IMO. And some of the gold plating is wearing off from the bridge as a result of being played, as can be seen in the photos.
As pictured, a pau ferro ramp and matching gold knobs were added after the original build. The ramp is removable and the original black knobs are included as well.
This is the link to the original Fodera gallery entry:
Maple Burl Imperial 5 Elite MG Shape
This bass also includes the no longer available premium hard case with the red interior and embroidered logo on the outside.
Reason for selling is I am not playing much anymore and I have a lot of stuff. More will likely be listed in the future.
Ground shipping via FedEx is included in the price. The bass will be fully insured and packed professionally by FedEx as well.
This is for sale only, not interested in trades.
Thanks for looking!
