Fodera Monarch Deluxe V 1996 £6200 Poland, Legnica

[Wiktor Brozyna]

I'm the owner of the bass, Fodera Monarch Deluxe V , It was already on the forum in 2018 and was sold to me.
 

 

The previous owner is a friend of mine and I took this opportunity to put the bass into the right hands.
Since it is in my possession, the strings have been changed and unfortunately it was still in its case all the time due to the lack of time to play it.
I cordially invite you to buy this amazing instrument.

Due to the fact that it is a pity that it would be in its case, I will sale the bass in good hands so that it can play a lot of great music again.

Bass is in fantastic condition, has low string action, perfect tune – and generally, is in almost mint condition. Frets are in great shape. Bass has extended B string.

The most unique and rare is top of the bass, which is beautifull maple eyelet, I believe. The body of bass is 2 piece ash; neck is maple with beautifull fingerboard. This is set-neck instrument, equiped with Seymur Duncan dual coils Humbackers, which was used theeese days in Fodera's. Bas is also equiped With Mike Pope 18 V active electronics, which produce fantastic, rich and fat sound who is characteristic for Foderas from this period.
