[quote name='jobistre' post='676584' date='Dec 7 2009, 01:07 PM']ohhhhhh!a famous brand!!!!! walnut are my favorite the body shape is good but... what an ugly head, my friend!?! too "disco" for me... (every taste can be found in the nature.) certainly balanced by a good sound. what is the scale?[/quote] But this on IS what the headline sais it is.

That IS a lovely bass. Love the Fodera Imperial look of the body... but the head doesn't do it for me though. Starting to believe that the bodyshape is the only connection to Fodera...

[quote name='AndyMartin' post='675613' date='Dec 6 2009, 01:51 PM']The Carl Thompson connection seems to be that it was featured on the same website as some Carl Thompson basses so I guess that it may have been in a room with some Foderas at some point in it's life [/quote] "Mark worked Side by Side with Carl".

[quote name='jobistre' post='675465' date='Dec 6 2009, 10:54 AM']if you think 5000 usd is a cheap price, you are a lucky man [/quote] Could you answer my question, please? Curious to know. Can't find anywhere that Mark, or Carl, have had anything to do with Fodera...

What does this have do to with Fodera?

[quote name='AndyTravis' post='674628' date='Dec 5 2009, 01:25 AM']thank god it's not four strings![/quote] Easely taken care of though.

...

Thanks for all nice comments guys! It's indeed a great bass.

[quote name='budget bassist' post='672379' date='Dec 2 2009, 07:45 PM']yeah the pickups are ever so slightly smaller too, so you can't replace them without butchering the bass[/quote] Luckely there's no need to do that.

Sold.

If you think I'm asking for to much I'm open for offers.

Bump

Open for trades...

[quote name='Ou7shined' post='638267' date='Oct 27 2009, 07:14 PM']Sweet. [/quote] Indeed. Can add that these are a bit smaller than a Stingray. Like a Sterling in the proportions. Jazzy-neck and smaller body.

Hi! Selling my Sabre due to another purchase. Realized that there was a reason for selling my SR5. It's not my sound, I miss a couple of strings and I look ridiculous with one way up under my chin. Made in -87. Great cond. Sounds and plays great. Low action is no problem as you can see at the pics. Weighs under 4 kilos. VERY versatile instrument. Can sound like a p-bass (neck pickup) and a stingray (bridge pu) and a couple of other great sounds too. 2-band eq. Comes with a hardcase so posting it is not a problem. Here's how it works: And a couple of pics: Forgot to take a pic of the backside but no buckle rash and there's a "skunk stripe" on the neck. More pics can be fixed if asked for. Would like about 1200€ for it obo. Greetings/ Jens Westerinen

Would be happy for offers around 11-1200 €.

Hi! This baby is up for sale again due to another purchase and fretless just ain't my thing. Pm an offer if interested. Adding some new pics too:

[quote name='Rayman' post='617737' date='Oct 5 2009, 07:07 PM']Just stunning, I love the paint job.[/quote] +1 Is it original?

[quote name='philw' post='631126' date='Oct 20 2009, 10:56 AM']Considering the Energy, like most Status basses, has a zero fret, that's a very odd thing to do to the nut. Looks to me, all that needs doing is the piece of wood removing. Phil[/quote] Sorry, but... Remove the toothpick, or what ever it is. The strings are ment to rest on the first fret.

Sold?

[quote name='littleal' post='621827' date='Oct 9 2009, 06:15 PM']Ouch!! Bet that hurt! The RM250 is a 2stroke Right? I love 2strokes, I've just sold a Yamaha rd350lc, Do you remember them?[/quote] Hurted like hell. Couldn't walk straight for about 2 months. Yes, it is. It's a real TOY. One of my friends ride a Yamaha but I can't recall anything spec. about the rd350lc modell though. A classic?

[quote name='littleal' post='621776' date='Oct 9 2009, 05:33 PM']That Looks alota Fun, Big back sprocket=big wheelies :brow: Is it a Husky?[/quote] You bet ya! The back wheel's only 18" too. Gives alot of momentum. It's a Suzuki RM250 with Öhlin hydrolics and some other modifications. The pic's taken just after I was finish restoring it after hitting a tree doing a wheely in third gear.
