That vid is on heavy rotation at my place. I discovered Bona pretty recently, and through him, I sort of 'discovered' Fodera. By which, I mean that, as a brand one doesn't see out and about in the pubs, my intro to the basses was via vids and recordings. And while I find that Victor Wooten is Bass Windu, his tone didn't make me lust after Fodera at all. Then I finally gave Bona a listen and felt the air go out of the room.
That's also when my yen for an olive wood topped bass started. I'd never heard of such a thing before. But it's just so... Uh, pretty.
the 12 is amazing and he's got mad skillz

just the backs ;-)
actually i've been waiting for them to be done before i posted pics, but the design is still being worked out.
eventually, i'll do a family portrait for real.
Yeah!! It was a bit, thanks for injecting a little pace. I love the customization, there's a theme there but I'm trying to figure out how Nosferatu fits in? Looking forward to the full-frontal.
.LoLCompletely off topic, but I've been using a Genz 9.2 shuttlemax for the last year and love it. I know your a big fan of their amps so I'd like to ask, how do you hook-up your vast array of pedals, are you using just the master send & return or anything more fancy.
Just curious...Cheers

glad you noticed klaus ;-)
the front is *not* isabel adjani . . . sorry.
nosferatu is there because a friend found the sticker at a festival in germany and knew i'd like it as we're both klaus fans. seemed perfect. if i win the lottery, i'll get a fretless 12 and it gets a big smiley face.
pairs of basses have themes.
yeah, i dig the 12 max. i'm generally not a fan of effects loops, and way i do stuff isn't good for them. i just go bass through the effects into the amp.
besides, i'm kind of a dope when it comes to that stuff ;-).

We need more front views!
;-)
meant as a tease.
sorry.
I've owned a couple of Elites (Emperor & Imperial) in the past, and my preference would be the set-neck joint. It just has that omph of a bolt-on and the feel of a neck through. With that being said, I'd love to own all three of those beauties but unfortunatly, my wallet is a little on the light side. 
Got my MG 5 Fodera yesterday and I don't have pictures yet because I can't put that bass down!
I had played other peoples foderas before and loved them, got right what i was expecting and a bit more. Plays like butter, easiest bass I have played so far, beautiful buckeye top, not too heavy and not too light, range of tones is almost like having multiple basses in one. Its a sexy bass! I will post pictures soon.
