New Fodera bass reveal! and Demo

When I picked up my 30th anniversary bass in 2022, I had a dream about this bass. Fodera made it into a reality. Here's the "unboxing" and demo. 11/15/23

[@willrepholz5638]

Congrats! I've been playing bass for 30 years and my main axe is a Squier Jazz lol

[@dr_bassius]

I STILL have my squire PJ! hell yeah!

[@bassocanario]

The low end on that bass...RIDICULOUS! And the rest of the range has wonderful presence and clarity, too. Love that preamp as well. Wishing you many years of great health and inspired playing!

[@dr_bassius]

Thank you!! 🙏

[@richshields6692]

[@scottm7720]

Very beautiful looking and sounding bass. Congratulations!

[@dr_bassius]

Thanks, Scott!

[@charlesbernklau6234]

Nice bass! Good demo and playing also. I have a 5 string on order very similar to this bass myself so this was great to see! Hope you get many years of enjoyment from this!

[@PrincessBalamb]

Beautiful demo and bass!! Congratulations!! 😊

[@dr_bassius]

[@aomoon81]

[@dr_bassius]

Thanks! i love it!

[@LaurenceMollerup]

Congratulations, you sound fantastic on it!

[@dr_bassius]

HEY LAURENCE!!! thanks man!!!

[@CookbookAdventures]

Congrats man. That is like the Ferrari of basses. I hope I get to at least play one at some point. That bass is a whole other level.

[@dr_bassius]

It’s crazy. I love it.

[@raichoo]

That's really a great bass 😸 Congratulations. I also dreamed about having a fretless 6 string and shortly after that I started making music again. Yesterday I got my first fretless 6. Not the one I dreamed about but my dream bass has changed anyway 😅

[@dr_bassius]

That’s super cool!

[@dantelzubel]

That suppressible ramp is probably my favorite part, functionally. Very cool

[@dr_bassius]

It is very very cool 😎

[@rr-fn5bs]

that bridge looks wixked intense! i LOVE a strong bass bridge~!

[@jamesobrien8529]

It is wiCKed

[@EC100_]

This guy is INSANE on TikTok live, such talent.

[@dr_bassius]

Hey thanks!! 😊

[@Vykk_Draygo]

Awesome bass! Sounds just as good as it loooks, and I LOVE the size! Got my first 6-string bass last month. Completely different animal from 4-string, but it's an amazing instrument. Only five figure instrument we own is my wife's Yamaha Baby Grand (which I love). Not sure I can justify a Fodera as a hobbyist, but I can dream. 🤣

[@dr_bassius]

Hey! Dreams come true 🤷🏻‍♂️😊

[@samkeen]

The retractable ramp is such a brilliant idea

[@dr_bassius]

right? i love it!!!!

[@jodywinward1651]

❤❤BEAUTIMOUS

[@dr_bassius]

Isn’t it though? 🥰

[@Infectedbyevil]

Congratulations ❤ nice instrument. 31" scale it's probably for some special style of music:)

[@CRAM.Lajoie]

Wow, sounds killer! Love your overall build. Except the mute switch. 😂

[@dr_bassius]

Hahaha that’s a funny story about why I do the mute switch….. lol I’ll make a short video about it sometime

[@mrgskye]

His dreams are tame 👀

[@bassclefconnoisseur]

Congratulations bro! I'll bet that was a couple nickels

[@gadymarcus2362]

Bella/Linda.🌡️🌡️🌡️🌡️🌡️🌡️😮

[@Mrflippyfloop]

That sounds crazy good for a 31"

[@dr_bassius]

It’s awesome, right? The low notes are so killer

[@Sergey_lion]

I made a child a T-shirt with the Fodera logo, he is 4 years old. Many people don't understand what it is. Only for initiates. Congratulations. Sergey, rus

[@dr_bassius]

That’s awesome!

[@thelancastersmokehouse]

8:56 A Change of Seasons anyone?

[@bassimprovjams3772]

Yas!! Masterful song!! I hear it

[@michaelanderson4265]

💯🦋

[@mark6302]

my god man :0

[@dr_bassius]

Ain’t it somethin’??? 🤩

[@minormayor7899]

They can build you anything if you are willing to spend over 10 grande for a bass, its for sure a great instrument, but the price makes them unreacheable for the average pocket.....if you like them and you can spend that money and you want to do It, IS the best one can do, they are great basses for sure

[@dr_bassius]

You’re absolutely right. Check out this video that I’m in. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2emgIqGjZl3sNksi=7qfRFpKpCrqffu9U

[@FusionStuff]

Hi! What is your preferred stringspacing for 6 string basses?

[@dr_bassius]

17.5mm. I have a student with a Ken smith that’s 19mm. It’s not too bad and I can play it fine. But 17.5 is just right for me.

[@FusionStuff]

@@dr_bassius Thank you very much! Necks on your basses look so wide, but surprisingly, it's 17.5mm!

[@discobassgroove]

those the zen blades?

[@dr_bassius]

big blades

[@jazzman0173]

Looks like a queer pride bass !

[@dr_bassius]

I’ve been told it’s the bisexual flag 😅

[@croydonmassive]

Headstock is awful. Sorry. It looks terrible.

[@EnJoony]

@croydonmassive Agreed - And that color scheme - Jeez!
