Basses – On Order

I always have something on order with FBass and Fodera.  I’m going to do my best to keep this page updated with what I have on order that is still available for purchase so that ya’ll can keep an eye on it.  However, I would also suggest that you contact me if you are looking for something in particular, as I might forget to keep this thing super updated in a timely manner.

Payment Policies

F Basses On Order:

New orders from FBass usually take 3-5 months to complete. Sometimes we can modify the specs on an existing order to meet what you would prefer.

 

BN6 – no-pore-filler brownburst finish, maple fingerboard – $3,395 (ETA December 2011)


Fodera Basses On Order:

Most of you all know that the wait time for a custom Fodera can be quite lengthy – 20-24 months is the average right now (and that’s actually pretty quick, for Fodera!). The majority of the Fodera basses are sold before they ever hit a dealer’s inventory. Also, nearly all of the specs of a custom order can be changed up until about 4-months before the bass is delivered. So really what’s “on order” below, in the case of customs, can be changed to fit whatever specs you would prefer – even changing the model!

If you see something you like below, or maybe you just see a delivery date you would like, contact me and we can work out the rest.

    Just want to talk with you on a possible trade. I have a Fodera AJ contrabass serial # 106987. A killer instrument that I have been playing for about 8 years. Sence I have acquired a couple Fbasses, I have really gotten use to the 34 1/2″ scale langth and now the AJ’s 36″ scale langth is a real stretch. Looking to trade the AJ for a couple 6 string Fbasses. Email me or call me with your thoughts.
    Thanks
