I played this bass a few years ago at the Gallery. Very nice and super easy to play. If I had the cash...

I've been eyeing these up for a while. Very interested. What is the weight please ?

New pictures, enjoy.

That's sweet. What is the weight please ?

Bump.

Bit on the heavy side for me , gutted :-(

Look forward to hearing what the weight is. Can you explain what the EQ controls are on this bass ? Cheers

That's a nice looking ACG. What's the weight ?

I may be interested in this. I tried out a friends older yamaha trb II six string. I liked it but it was pretty heavy. Do you know the weight of this one ?

bump,bump,bump.

I'll post some better photo's soon. Rushed these a bit.

Please note that this is very much a feeler still. I've just put a new set of DR High Beams, cleaned the fingerboard and bass. Feels and sounds amazing. I will only sell as a last resort to my financial peril. I love this bass...

Thanks for the heads up Clarky. Post edited ' filled '

I'll try and get some pic's up later today. Relax everybody ;-)

I know what you mean. I was shocked to see the fills. Every luthier that I've spoken to has informed me that it's nigh on impossible to find a piece of this burl without holes. Like I said, it does distract from a perfect bass, hence the price. No ramp at present although I'm waiting for one to be built. Will include it of course.

I love this bass and it's by far the best bass I've ever owned or played. Due to financial peril at present I may have to sell it Just wanna see if there is any interest at present. It's a Fodera Victor Wooten '83 Monarch Classic 4 string, Mahogany body / Burl top, Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, EMG's and Mike Pope pre. Made in 2005. The neck and condition is superb. Was like new when I bought it two years ago and has been very well looked after. There are a few knots of wood on the burl top that have been filled and are noticable on close inspection. I would like to get these redone at some point. It's a minor thing but on a bass as perfect as this, I kind'a wanted to get them sorted. I cannot stress how amazing this bass plays and sounds. I'm not a rich person and had to go all out to buy it. I'm sure I'll regret selling it and everybody I know is advising me against selling it. They get more expensive every year so a great investment. £4,100. ( Was £4,300 ) I think this is a very fair price for a Fodera. Bassgear.co.uk have a pre-owned for £6,999 ! I'm firm on the price as I cannot justify letting this go for less. PM me if you are interested. Cheers. The offending filled bit ! My flash has made this look a hundred times worst than in the flesh. But at least it's not being hidden, for sure !

Still for sale.

Bass Collection 4 string for sale. Think it's the 461 model. This is one of the original 90's model's. Not to be confused with the horrible new ones. Bought from ' Smash ' on this very site. Looking to get back what I payed for it. £275 plus postage. This is a lot of bass for the money. I've cleaned it up and has a set of DR's. Gutted I have to sell it but I'm skint and need to buy a new computer for rendering. Japanese sen body, padauk facing, ebony fingerboard, controls are volume / pickup pan / bass / treble. Very good condition apart from a slight bit of wear above the P pickup. There's a lot of buzz about these basses on Basschat here- [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=697&hl=Nanyo"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=697&hl=Nanyo[/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0242/all_other"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0336/all3"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0276/head"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0247/back_all"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0313/back"][/url] The camera has created some weird markings between the 2 pickups / between the E string. [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0418/body"][/url] The wear above the P pickup [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0977/wear"][/url] As you can see from the pic's, a lot of bass for the £

I'm very tempted. Where are you based ?

OMG ! I would love this.
