She has over $2500 in upgrade options and was close to $9950 new.. This is a one of a kind piece with collector status and will only appreciate in value by thousands Mint condition and only taken on 3 gigs..Lived in my studio... The tone of this bass is outstanding..You can go from Marcus sizzle to Jaco snarl to big bottom blues to buttery swing to wherever your crerative mind sends you..She is an inspiration to play....The incredible thing about this Fodera is that it visually looks correct in any type of band setting...
