Fodera Emperor Standard Classic Jazz Bass, looking for a trade plus cash my way. £3995 Wigan

[MNY]

Hello All, 

 

I recently picked up my lovely Fodera in a 3 basses for 1 trade from Bass Bros. It’s a truly stunning example of a passive jazz bass and is indistinguishable from new, I cannot find a mark or ding anywhere on the instrument. Please see a link to the exact model below,

I would prefer a trade for something along the lines of a 4 string active jazz or similar. Ideally I would like a trade for something where I can receive cash my way. Please note that for some strange reason my bass is still listed on Reverb as for sale by The Gallery for just over £5000. I believe it must have been there as a consignment sale and subsequently moved to Bass Bros from whence it came to me.  I don’t have lots of photos yet as this is very much an opportunity to see what might be out there. If there is sufficient interest I will be happy to post more photos. Please rest assured this is an incredible instrument, it sounds and plays wonderfully well as you would expect, weighs 4kg so it’s not at all heavy, and has a Fodera D tuner fitted. 
 

Hit me up if you have anything to discuss. This is a rare beast, in fact I can’t see many for sale at all unless you want to shop from Japan and pay a small fortune in duty, vat, shipping etc and a purchase price of over £6000. Needless to say I won’t be upset if I have to keep her, but a recent job change means a bit of cash will come in handy. Please note that two of these photos are taken from the Reverb listing. Rest assured nothing dodgy, you can see the bass in its case on the floor of my home office/music room.  Please feel free to check my feedback as well. 
 

Thanks for looking.
