Fodera Club

[echo008]

Hey Echo,
Looks like you have the same Haz Labs pre as in my 6 string..Open up the control cover and move all the dip switches to the down off position it will be like the bass just woke up..
They have them set from Fodera in a way the cuts alot of the highs and in my opinnion kills alot of the natural sound of the bass..

Very cool.
looks to be the same pre ... and I will defintiely give that a go tonight when I get home thanks for the heads up.

I have to say that the bass also sounds amazing passive...
just edited my original description, I thought it was a 2 band Fodera (Pope) pre

I've always enjoyed watching you play, Brandin. I just felt that I should mention that. That Fodera just sings, man! Sings! Very tight.

This recording reminds me of this tune (for whatever reason):




Have you heard if Ryan got his in yet?

 

[brandinstroy]

I just spoke with him. Ryan is waiting still. should be done in a few weeks.

 

[OrionManMatt]

I figured so. I can't wait to see it!

 

[funkybassplayer]

oh wow. i sooooo want to be in this club. i have a butterfly sticker on my case. does that count?

 

[brandinstroy]

I figured so. I can't wait to see it!

When he gets it we are going to do a comparison. The only difference with the one he has ordered and the one i have is the top wood and the neck wood and maybe pickup placement.

That's all?

Are you pretty much playing for Second these days?

 

[brandinstroy]

yeah pretty much. The Second gig is really great. I get to play every mainstream style. it pushes me big time but i get it done. There's also studio and orchestra work as well. actually working with Wayne Watson at the moment on a new record.

What neck wood is that? ASH?

-Christian

 

[brandinstroy]

yep.

 

[Christian Houmann]

yep.

So it's a Bona Imperial 5 with Ash body/Ash neck and birdseye maple What's the topwood?

-Christian

 

[brandinstroy]

No the bona is maple neck/ Ash body/ birdseye board/ Olive top.

But the comparison is Garrison vs. Garrison. the only difference between the two will be the top wood and the neck wood. Mine being maple neck/ rainbow maple top. Look up in the thread for pics Miko posted. Ryans bass will have an ash neck/ koa top

 

[Christian Houmann]

Yes That's true! I read that you traded your Bona with a MG model. Not sure what I was thinking

What was your throught in sound on the Bona compared the your MG?

 

[D.A.R.K.]

I'm in on this one

I'll get some pictures of my VW Classic too and post another time.

Cheers

Nick

said it before, i'll say it again...

Amazing! Have never seen a Fodera 7 string before. Enjoy it.

I think I've only seen one, apart from this one, which was a Monarch 7 string that was on the old Fodera site.
