Born on July 7, 1995, this baby has been played, and has likely seen some stuff. This recent trade, towards a new Fodera, needed some TLC. So I cleaned it up, restrung with Fodera strings, and adjusted the neck and action. While this is certainly a player’s bass, it feels and sounds soooo gooooood!

Everything that is important works great, but do check the pictures to see the wear.

Box Elder Burl Imperial 5 Select

Our Select Series instruments provide us with an opportunity to build small runs of Custom instruments where, much like with the Standard Line, we control all aspects of the specifications. Building in a batch format along with not having to worry about changing any specs throughout the batch enables us to save time and costs which we can pass along to you. These basses feature chambered Walnut bodies with Alder tone blocks, Red Oak necks, and Ebony fingerboards. This wood combination is something we have been using more frequently on custom models in the past year or so, so it seemed only natural that we use it on our latest run of Selects! These woods give this instrument a rich, warm, and wonderfully articulate tone, with deep punchy lows, warm mids, and clear, bell-like highs. The chambered body has the added effect of adding a certain openness to the overall sound that we personally are in love with! These selects also feature presentation-grade Box Elder Burl solid tops. Box Elder is a light, soft top wood so it sonically gets out of the way and allows the rest of the tonal mix to really shine through!

I promise you that you’ve never experienced anything quite like this before! Amfisound is a small workshop in Finland that makes all of their guitars and basses by hand. The workmanship is top notch, as are the materials. But what really sets the bass apart is the dual scale length, and the tuning options.
Essentially the concept is to have a four string bass with a 32″ scale – this makes it very easy to play, and all of the notes are punchy and full sounding with the shorter scale. Then, you have two strings that are a 36″ scale. These are designed to go all the way down to Low E and Low A – an octave below the normal E & A strings! You can also tune them up to any other pitch you like as well.
The wait time is about 10-12 months and sells for $8000 brand new. Skip the wait and get this amazing bass now at a huge savings!
