  1. I bought an amazing Fodera Imperial Elite from Mr. Woolf,

    A very pleasant transaction from start to finish with excellent communication and superb courier proof packaging,

    A gent that made me very comfortable about spending the price of a reasonably decent car on a bass,

    recommended.

    Thank you.. Sweet looking basses.. What happened to the original neck of the 20th anniversary bass? 😁

    Hi,

    the original Neck is Birdseye maple with a maple fingerboard, and is wrapped up in bubble wrap waiting for me to get an alternative body for the carbon neck,it’s a great bass the maple cap gives it a top end sparkle,

    sounds punchy even unplugged.

    They both Look great - how does that P sound with the dual soap bars? 

    The P is incredibly versatile with the Aguilar DCB's you can get any tone you like out of it strings permitting,

    I put a set of Aguilar Dcb Soaps and a Glockenklang pre into a Cort 5 string last year and they completely transformed it!

    it sounded like a 5K boutique bass,

    seriously great pickups.

    The one with the graphite is a 20th Anniversary isn’t it? What neck did it have on it originally?

    It was stock with a Birdseye maple neck,

    I will reunite the neck with the body at some stage,

    it’s a very nice bass.

    I don't think so. I missed out on it a few months back when @ale29 indicated that it had been sold in response to my PM. 

    I'll let him confirm though.

    There’s another Identical Sadowsky Rs4 ‘59 Burst on here also in Italy,

    I contacted the seller yesterday and he had traded it recently in a bass shop in Italy,

    he gave me the contact details for the shop and I successfully negotiated the purchase this morning,

    so new bass incoming 😃

    Well, looks like as I suspected I might need to shell out on some power valves.  Trying to bias it up to the amount stated on the chasis but even at maxed out the trim pot it doesn't appear to be enough.  3 of the valves do look like they are pretty old Svetlana's whilst the other three look like newer Marshall branded 6550.  I see I can pick up a pack of 6 x Bugera 6550's for £150 but no reviews or comments on them anywhere.  Might pay the bit extra for Sovtek or JJ's?

    Pay the extra for JJ’s

    the improvement in tone is worth it.

    when I bought mine I completely retubed it,

    the difference in sound was like night and day.
