send out a message.  I have an Emperor Deluxe 5.  Burl Redwood top on
Mahogany body.  I absolutely love the bass.  Top notch craftsmanship
and tons of tonal options for sure.  I just posted a few pics in the
pictures section.  Sorry they are not great.  I just snappd them and
posted them quickly.  Looking forward to some good discussions.

hi Rodney, I just stumbled here as well. I have had a few Foderas,
some of them magical. I am having this one refinished right now. I
am a terrible guitar player, but I am very excited about this
instrument! although I probably won't sell it, I might end up trying
to trade for a Fodera bass cause, like I said, I am terrible at
guitar. Still, after it is refinished, it will be a serious
collectors piece.
