Fodera Club Part XI

Status
Not open for further replies.
Almost received my bass for a week and decided to make some quick tracks for those who feel interested in how a 33" scale length + 6 string bass sounding.

Signal Path
Passive (tone slightly roll off, bridge PU) - TC Electronic Konnekt 48 interface - logic pro without any effect.

Sorry for the sloppy playing...:rolleyes:

Will do a slap track soon..:bassist:

Sounds sweet, Timothy!
 
Hmmmm.

We will get that fixed as soon as I get into the office!

Cheers,

J

Jason,

THANK YOU for fixing the problem...it works now!! I finally got to read the article I've been wanting to ever since I heard it was out there...and now it means I don't have to buy a back-issue of Bass Player :rollno:

The article was very cool. I would strongly urge anyone who has not read it (the "Meet Your Maker" in Bass Player about Fodera in the Holiday 2011 issue, posted on the Fodera website) to do so. I learned a number of things I'd not known before. Great for the Foderaholic!
 
No-one got any information about the AJ double cuts :(

The original Anthony Jackson models were all doublecuts. The singlecuts came later. Here's mine, a 1992 with OEM Lane Poors and Hazlab preamp...

Damn, I have a twenty year old Fodera. Hadn't really thought about that.
:D

Nice :)

If anyone else is interested I just found this interview with AJ where he talks about the conception a 6 string & how he's worked with Fodera (and others) over the years:

Thanks for the audio samples! Did you end up going with the Aero dual coils?
 
Hey Jason,

Any updates on the new/improved Fodera cases? Just curious.

Also...I just packed up my wonderful F Bass BN5, which was sold to help finance my future Fodera. I can't tell you how hard it was to do that. It's headed off to San Francisco, to a fellow TalkBass-er. Not like I played it all that much, but all of my instruments are like pets...but I know I did it for a higher purpose...another Fodera!! :hyper::hyper:
 
My YYS is heading to Thailand, and the Monarch will be headed to AL soon. The YYD is cemented as first-call bass for anything other than straight ahead tunes where I want the Rob Allen vibe (though it works just fine for jazz). I'll have to see what might pop up before the MGS is done. Can't just have one Fodera in the house :D
