Custom Fodera Monarch 4 Natural Quilted

This is a mint, Fodera Monarch 4 bolt-on old (superior) style with the black ebony face headstock, beveled neck joint for better upper frets access,  angled headstock, Mike Pope pre-amp, P/J EMG's,  original Fodera molded case,  all case candy included, beautiful quilted maple top with a deep mahogany body, rosewood fretboard.
Made by Vinnie himself and his top, long time luthier, Vadim. I am the second owner and took this Monarch to Fodera in Bklyn to have it checked by Vinnie and crew. Vinnie and Vadim examined it and recognized their own personal handy work. Vinnie made certain parts and Vadim other parts. of this bass  This model is one of the old Standard Monarch's from the early 2000's when they used more expensive features as stated above in which the modern Standard Fodera's are no longer made that way, or  else the prices would be much higher than they already are. Vinnie admitted that to me. Plays like a dream, fast, low action, versatile, balances very well, a head turner, and well, it's a Fodera!   The new Fodera Monarch Standards cannot touch this former Standard in the way it was made and this old Standard is ALL USA, Bklyn  Fodera made. The new Standards are partly made in Japan, and part in Bklyn.  Comes with original molded Fodera case. PLEASE, NO low ballers!  NO TRADES, NO TRADES!!!! I will NOT respond to trade offers!!!!  Also, overseas buyers be aware that international ship rates will be MUCH higher than the posted USA ship rate in this ad. Thanks for looking.
