It is always a pleasure orderning a new Fodera for the shop. Sitting in front of a blank paper to choose a model and its specs is really exciting. In this case we wanted a lightweight 5 string bass that would be a real workhorse. We wanted it to be as versatile as possible and we think we have succeeded. Use it in Single Coil mode and you get an amazing Jazz Bass tone thanks in part to the ash body and maple fingerboard with the same type of attack as a Bolt on. Switch to humbucker mode and it is like getting a new bass, with sounds that go from Musicman-type to warmer-darker character. The range of available sounds is simple amazing. Any technique you want to play, this bass will deliver!
The ramp is great for Garrison-Wiilis technique, but you can remove it if you don't need it. The low B is loud and clear and access up the 24th fret is a breeze. To sum up, the most versatile Fodera we've ever had.
