My custom 5 string bass was developed working closely with Vinny Fodera and the Fodera Team. This bass was specifically designed to fit my body and my tonal objectives. The single cut was chosen to increase the sustain and handle altered tunings. The 2″ thick semi-hollow body adds comfort and a unique character I’ve come to love. I am experimenting with pickups at the moment and my recent favorite is an Aguilar DCB in the bridge position and the Fodera-Duncan in the neck position. I sold several basses to get this one and I am glad I did!
