Beebebop's Visit to the Fodera Factory

Beebebop's visit to the Fodera Factory to pick up the Beebebop Imperial Exhibition 6 bass guitar.
My personal thanks to Mr. Vincent Fodera and his team for letting me capture their fine lutherie in action, creating probably the finest electric bass guitars in the world.
Special thanks also to Mr. David Beasley of the Grooveshoppe for providing me with the invaluable guidance and advice in making my dreambass a reality.

Hi Beebebop!

I just love this clip! Thanks for sharing. Hope you still are lovin' your bass.

Hi there!

Yes, the Imperial is sounding better and better these days - I guess it must be the seasoning if the instrument over time.

Thanks for popping by, and I do hope you're enjoying your basses and music too.

Kind regards,

Beebebop,

Beijing.

Hey, sweet bass. What bass amp were you going through in this clip? The low B sounds incredible!

[beebebop]

I think it was a 2x10 coupled with an integrated amp from Epifani.
