Thread: Skin DEEP 2015 - Monarch Flies

    Default Skin DEEP 2015 - Monarch Flies

    With a final vote of 5 - 1, the Fodera Monarch 4 Deluxe Bass soars over the Fender Jaco Pastorius Fretless Bass, bringing yet a new champion to the throne!

    I think the Fodera's Ebony top really set this beauty above the Jaco bass. Gorgeous.

    Something simple this week, in contrast to the Fodera's multi-faceted appearance. This is the new 2015 Ibanez SRFF4505SOL Prestige Fanned Fret Bass. We have featured other models of the Prestige before, but there are many variations, and for this one, it's the look of those fanned frets on such a simple body that sets this one apart. No pick guard, no multi-coloured stringer strip up the middle, just a clean, solid body design, and a gorgeous oiled finish.

    New round coming later tonight. It's a long weekend round these parts, and I'm enjoying some down time.

    In the meantime, start thinking about which pretty young bass will enter the ring this week!
