Step Up To Fodera Boutique Bass Quality

Whenever Victor Wooten takes the stage or steps into the studio, we expect nothing less than world-class musicianship. So it comes as no surprise that Mr. Wooten’s signature Fodera bass is a serious, ultra-premium instrument. Fodera, after all, enjoys a reputation as the Ferrari of boutique basses. The Fodera Yin Yang 4 Standard Mahogany gives you the superior playability, sonics, and build quality of Victor’s Deluxe model, in a more affordable axe. Premium tonewoods — a mahogany body, a 3-piece red hard rock maple neck, and ebony fingerboard — combine with Fodera/Duncan Dual Coil pickups and proprietary Fodera/Pope Standard 3-band preamp to deliver sculptable high-fidelity bass tone that will grace any music genre. Bassists at Sweetwater are blown away by the Fodera Yin Yang 4 Standard Mahogany. We know you will be, too.

Sonic supremacy

Based on Victor Wooten’s signature custom Fodera bass, the Yin Yang Standard Special takes the series to a new level of sonic supremacy. Premium tonewoods are used throughout, including a mahogany body, a hard rock maple neck, and an ebony fretboard. Fodera/Duncan Dual Coil pickups deliver premium tone, with versatile sound-shaping provided by the Fodera/Pope Standard 3-band EQ.

Superior playability, tone, and build quality

Established in 1983 by custom luthier Vinny Fodera and pro bassist Joey Lauricella, Fodera enjoys a reputation as the Ferrari of boutique basses. Fodera basses give you the superior playability, sonics, and build quality of the custom models played by bass gods such as Victor Wooten, Anthony Jackson, and Oteil Burbridge — in a more affordable axe. Handcrafted in the US with the same materials by the same top luthiers, Fodera “production’ instruments offer no options, allowing them to be built in small runs instead of one-offs, thus holding down the cost. Play a Fodera and take a step up to boutique quality. You’ve arrived.

For many of the die-hard players at Sweetwater, Fodera's basses are the very pinnacle of custom-quality craftsmanship. They're the instruments we've dreamed of owning, and we're delighted to offer them to bass players as passionate as we are. Developing a close relationship with Fodera has been entirely rewarding. Every time we get our hands on a custom bass made just for Sweetwater, it's a new and exciting experience. Even their production models and electric guitars are amazing, and we've rarely seen their equal arrive from other world-class luthiers. Take a look at the Fodera instrument collection in Sweetwater's Guitar Gallery, and you'll see exactly what we mean. We can't wait to put one of these breathtaking instruments in your hands.
