I hate parting with this beauty, but I must. If anyone has any questions please feel free to PM. I had this built through Dave Beasely of the Grooveshoppe. The tone is honestly amazing in every way and I've had NOTHING but compliments on the tone since I first opened the case 3 years ago. This beauty is near mint and when I spoke with Fodera and gave him the specs the value mentioned is 12,000. I know I'll never get that, but I'm looking to get 8,000, which is very fair considering the value and the aesthetics, wood combinations, and all options considered...and it's below street. It's a sick deal for an incredibly sonically versatile instrument. The groove tone is is amazing and the slap tone is a kick to the gut.
I'm NOT interested in any trades whatsoever.
