mrbassman_de Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Selling my just acquired [b][color=#FF0000]Fodera Emperor Elite 5 Ebony Top[/color][/b]. Great bass, but I have an almost identical Fodera with Single Coils - and I prefer that one. Specs: Ebony Top Mahogany Body wings, Alder Tone Block 5-pc Maple Neck (Upcharge) Ebony Board, 24 frets, Mother of Pearl Blocks (Upcharge) 34 scale String Spacing at bridge: 18,5 - 19,5 mm (now ca. 19 mm) Black Hardware Seymour Duncan Dual Coils Ebony Ramp, removable Pope preamp, 3-Bd.-EQ Weight: 4,9 kg Birth Year: ca. 1999 This bass would have a retail price of about 12k USD, street price probably 10% less, VAT, customs and shipping on top. Very good condition, very few minor marks here and there but nothing to be exposable in pics. This Fodera has a thunderous B string, deep and clear. Action is super low. The bass balances well on the strap. The truss rod works perfect, all screws, frets etc. are in great working condition. This is a true workhorse for the professional and a joy to play for all low end enthusiasts ! SOLD Edited July 4, 2013 by mrbassman_de

GregBass Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 That is truly stunning - but sadly out of my price range.

viss1700 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Hi Rainer, I recognize the bass as the bass from Edwin van Huik isn't it? Great bass, and a good price; succes with selling Grtz from The Netherlands, Hans

Great bass, and a good price; succes with selling Grtz from The Netherlands, Hans [/quote] Hi Hans and all others, Thanks a lot for your kind comments and Yes, that's true - it was formerly owned and played by Edwin. It was just sold to another fellow BC'er who forwarded it to me now. Very good bass indeed. Unfortunately I can't keep them all. There are some interesting trades in the works but nothing final yet.
mrbassman_de Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 Still available. And still interested in Alleva Coppolo 5ers or Fodera Singlecuts. Always interested in preCBS Fenders ...:-)
mrbassman_de Posted May 9, 2013 Author Posted May 9, 2013 Still available. Tons of trade offers, but nothing final yet.
Stubass1969 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Such a good looking bass. Well out of my price range at the moment.
mrbassman_de Posted June 1, 2013 Author Posted June 1, 2013 Still for sale or trade against a singlecut Fodera
