hey guys. a while ago i asked you for your kind help to define some instruments for a university project of mine. In the last few weeks i worked on the project and am near to completion with my research for it.

The bridge is by Fodera (their own design).

His standard strings are Fodera Roundwound, Nickel, 40-55-75-95's.

PU Style is P/J and they are in the standard position for those PU types.

Body Shape is Fodera "Monarch"

I am not sure what finish material is used, but the body top is finished in semi-gloss and the neck in satin...

Hope that this helps!
