Details

I've got a gorgeous Fodera Emperor 5 string bolt-on that I'm putting on the for sale block to acquire something else I've had my eye on. If the bass doesn't sell in a few days it will be off the market since I am only selling this bass to buy something different, so if this bass speaks to you...act now. If the bass I want to buy sells before this one does or if the seller (who needs to raise cash for rent) pulls his bass off the market, this will no longer be for sale.

Here's the specs:
35" scale
Highly figured burled redwood top (w/ matching pickup covers and headstock)
Walnut body
Madagascar Rosewood Fretboard with abalone block inlays (21 frets)
Extended B headstock (w/ gold hardware)
Duncan dual coils w/ pope 3-band
Fodera Teardrop Hardshell case

similar basses would cost about 7k new...and then there's the wait for the bass. get it NOW for only $4,700

PRICE DROP - $4,600 (plus actual shipping charges) - this deal is insane for this bass...snatch it up before i come to my senses.


here's some pictures of this beauty:

WHY must you do this to us? That is exactly what I was going to order from Fodera. That thing is so perfect in EVERY way. I wish I could put it on layaway... hehee :D

Good luck with the sale! That is a great bass!!!!

Why not save some cash and not have to deal with the wait? Buy this one now!!!

Credit cards are just like lay-away ;)

please note - cosmicevan does not promote building debt to buy basses

Cosmice?! How?!

I just told you in another thread that you can sell this until I get the funds to buy it someday! :(

Good luck though! :bassist:

bump for the 5th (hangover day). what better way to recover from your independence day hangover than to get a new bass?

...someone buy this bass soon or it will no longer be for sale. playing it a lot lately and am starting to think i might be crazy for considering letting go of this beaut for something else.

one of the few basses I've had my eye on is already gone...if the others sell this will DEFINITELY be pulled from the classifieds. if this bass interests you, NOW is the time to make an offer.

You should KEEP THIS BASS!!!!:bassist:

Fantastic Bass, Fantastic price, No buyers. Don't ya get it? The stars are against the sale:D.

BTW What would top this Fodera that you're willing to part with it?

I'm just teasing, I hope you're able to grab whatever floats your boat.

BUMP.

God Bless, Ray

got my eye on a one-of-a-kind carl thompson...after playing a few thompsons, the addiction has been confirmed. the seller has another buyer on hold waiting to see if i can sell this in time. he'd rather sell it to me since i'll play it, the other potential buyer is a collector. will likely end up keeping this one if it doesn't sell in the next 2 or 3 weeks.

bump...

Evan, if scale length was 1 or maybe 2 :D:D inches smaller I'd have stole this one from you days ago! Good luck with the sale.
