Fodera Club Part XVIII

[Baird6869]

I was originally gonna go with a rainbow maple or an ebony top, but then I watched a video of Vic and he had a beautiful newer flame maple bass and I fell in love with the simple elegance!

I was going to order a flame maple top (mahogany body, ebony board) on my Monarch 5 Deluxe as I just love how my E5S looks. I changed my mind as I liked the look of walnut equally... And it would be a cool contrast to my E5S.

Too many great options with Fodera! If I had the $$$, I would likely have a bunch of them.... Single coils, different tops and bodies, different scales, etc.

I'm so in love with the AJ! It's such a beast. The weight doesn't bother me at all. The tone and versatility is just unbelievable. It has tone for days.

I'd love to hear clips of your new baby.

I'd really like to hear clips of that "33 monarch!
Nice looking bass indeed, I think.

Would be great too, if someone would record clips of similar instruments with different scale lengths, or possibly even identical apart from the scale length...That would be VERY interesting!

Soundclips

I threw these down this morning, stupid looper pedal was clipping even when it was just sitting there. I guess digitech never heard of true bypass...

Gets the point across on the tone though.

Really nice, man!

Shows you how versatile Foderas are. My style is the polar opposite to yours!

Really nice stuff.

Thanks guys.

I haven't moved from single coil position yet, excited to see the difference in hb mode with the new woods.

All I know is all my "gear excuses" are officially gone...lol

Nice! And you are good
Are you saying the bass is recorded in single coils mode?

very nice. liked the fourth one best. nice harmonic stuff in there (in general, but that one in particular).

3 Basses

Anyone that has more Foderas than T-shirts, is either super rich or super minimalist in the old wardrobe department.

I actually have only one Fodera bass and 2 Fodera T-Shirts. My second Fodera bass is on order though.

I must say though, I actually do have a pretty stellar bass t-shirt collection.... Fodera, Jule Amps, Fender, Gibson, Musicman.... Like a friggin' walking Guitar Centre ad! mainly what I wear when not in a suit/tie.
