This Fodera 4 String Monarch is owned by Victor Wooten

Some basses hang on a wall. This one worked for a living. Owned and played by Victor Wooten — five-time Grammy winner, four-time Bass Player of the Year, and founding member of Béla Fleck and the Flecktones — this Fodera 4 String Monarch is the real thing. Not a signature model built for retail, but an instrument that was actually part of his life.

And it's a gorgeous one. Quilted maple top over an ash body, maple neck, 24 frets, gold hardware, and active pickups that are atypical for a Monarch. A unique configuration you won't find on a standard build. It's in really great shape with just a few light scuffs here and there. The action is comfortable and low, making it an absolute joy to play straight out of the case.

This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special Fodera with real provenance, sold directly from Victor Wooten's personal Reverb shop.

Ships fully insured with delivery confirmation and comes with a signed, embossed Certificate of Authenticity.
