Fodera Emperor Standard Special 5-string Electric Bass - Amber Burst
5-string Electric Bass with Ash Body, Flame Maple Top, 3-piece Maple Neck, Compound-radius Pau Ferro Fingerboard, 2 Dual-coil Pickups, Active 3-band EQ, and Hard Case

When you need a boutique bass that offers unrivaled performance, you just can't beat Fodera's Emperor Standard Special 5-string. Fodera's Standard Special basses deliver the tone, playability, and visuals that have made owning a Fodera a goal of the world's top bass players, but at a fraction of the cost of a custom model. At the same time, the hand-selected Ash body, breathtaking flame Maple top, and 3-piece hard rock Maple neck are the same as you'd find on a custom model — and this bass was built by the same luthiers who produce Fodera's top-of-the-line models. Top it off with custom dual-coil pickups, a Fodera/Pope 3-band preamp, and black hardware, and you couldn't ask for a finer bass than the Emperor Standard Special.
