Fodera Club Part V

[thepontif]

You asked for it, you got....Fo-Dera!

 

[pringlw]

I think that "makers of the worlds finest bass guitars" is a bit of a dangerous one with luthiers out there that are working at the same level of quality and workmanship as fodera does.

Personally I believe Fodera does make the finest bass guitars in the world. If they believe it, and can back it up legally, I think they should say it.

Janek, I'm sorry to hear....

It takes a lot of guts to admit something like this publically.....

I'm sure you're not the only one it makes a bit of a difference to.

you're a funny mofo. you gonna be at namm?

If memory serves, some years back a legal challenge by Target forced a slogan change by Walmart.

Generally speaking, it's usually NOT a good thing to have the publicity buzzing that a court has ruled you don't always have the lowest prices like you've been claiming.

Besides, trying too hard to convince someone of something can inadvertently infer that this thing couldn't stand on its own merits.

With Fodera's impressive list of endorsers and players, it could easily get by with something like:

"When the best want the best, they reach for their Fodera."​

 

[Rich Treat]

Please forgive my ignorance, but is Fodera looking for a new slogan?

This all started with a discussion of book titles.

 

[lemon3007]

be careful. too much and the covers will crack!
I would go very cautious with that....

I'm talking for experience

Good Lord, that sounds very frightening. I hope this is never happening again in your life. That must have been a tremendous experience.

My sympathies.

Ah, thanks. I was a bit lost there.

 

[nikolas Chelly]

you could call it " From Brooklyn to your ears" Fodera story !

 

[steverosati]

I kinda like "We Got Bass Guitars Ova Here!"

Okay, now that I've found where I missed that, the discussion makes much more sense to me.

Book title ideas? I don't know.

• Flight of the Butterfly: The Fodera Story
  
• Fodera: From our hands to yours
  
• The Hand Made's Tale
  (The "Handmaid's Tale" is an acclaimed Margaret Atwood novel).

Flight of the Butterfly: The Fodera Story is very cool

[Just Thumpin']

And the title I mentioned was my working title (not ever intended for publication), BEFORE I was a partner here...that is why I added the "LOL."

Here is one thing that I can say with 100% certainty now that I am a partner...we try every to day to make the finest bass guitars that we are capable of making...

Yes and the opening scene sword fight between Vinny and Joey is truly disturbing...
