Fodera 35th Anniversary Monarch 4 Deluxe (pre-owned)

35th Anniversary Monarch 4 Deluxe

This limited-run 35th anniversary Monarch 4 Deluxe combines classic Fodera tone and looks paired with modern electronics and playability. For this bass, we’ve adopted an early Fodera wood combination of a Mahogany body, Quilted Maple top, and a Pau Ferro fingerboard. In the early days of Fodera guitars, Vinny chose this combination for its broad range of tone; able to capture warms lows and have the articulation needed for bass players stepping out into more solo work at the time. To mimic the look of the original oil-finished instruments we’ve stained the instrument to match the golden hues of a well-played oil-finished instrument while still utilizing our satin acrylic finish known for its breathability and durability. Finally, we’ve matched that with our latest preamp and proprietary Fodera / Seymour Duncan Dual Coil pickups and utilized our Dovetail neck joint found on original Fodera instruments like Victor Wooten’s 87 Monarch
