    Price:
    $4999
    Strings:
    4
    Location:
    Illinois
    For sale/trade: Near mint Fodera Monarch Standard Special. Madrone Burl over Swamp Ash. One piece quarter sawn Maple neck, Birdseye Maple fingerboard. 24-fret PLEK’d compound-radius fingerboard. Fodera/Duncan dual-coil pickups and the Fodera/Pope Standard Preamp with 3-band EQ. Active/Passive switch and coil tap switch. 1.5" at the brass nut. 19mm spacing at the bridge. 9.2-9.5 unscientific weight. Perfect balance. Near mint Fodera hardshell teardrop case. According to the folks at Fodera, only 3 or 4 of these were made with Madrone Burl tops. Vinny said they don’t often get pieces big enough for tops. One final item of note: Headstock autographed by Victor Wooten at his bass camp in 2019. Pic below of Joey holding the actual instrument. $4999 shipped insured.

    As far as trades, (or trades plus your cash) unfortunately I can't do anything over 34" scale or fretless. 4 or 5 strings ok. PM ("Conversation") me with any offers or questions. Thanks for looking!

    *** Added a couple more pics below @ post #3 ***
