2010年5月19日 · FClef basses has been a Fodera Dealer for many years. They also have their own basses made for them that have nothing whatsoever to do with our NYC's. "Thugs" is a very interesting choice of words to use for people that have dedicated their lives to building basses at the highest possible level (an instrument that you presumably love based on ...

2002年4月28日 · Bottom wave and fclef are the exact same bass just different labels . JAUQO III-X. Inactive. Jan 4, 2002 ...

2008年4月15日 · Assuming I'm remembering the name right, they are identical to the Fodera NYC's (which are just rebranded FClef J's). The passive tone sounded very good (Seymour Antiquities), but the active tone (not sure what pre... it was the standard F Clef) really made the instrument sound 'modern'.

2008年3月7日 · Very strange I played a new FClef last night (the wonderful Detroit bassist and FClef Endorser Michael Harrington was over to my house, and had a new FClef 70's style J.. and man, it looked like the Fodera NYC in every possible way... same headstock, Pope pre, pickups, neck profile and neck heel design, etc., etc., etc.).

2009年1月7日 · the neck pocket of my old Fclef..notice the BW MB5 stamp. Also notice the build date 15 Jul 06. I received this bass "new" in Feb. of '08 and it took 6 months of hassling George to get it after I was told when I placed the order that it would be ready in weeks. Also came with a two nice dings in...

2004年2月25日 · Anyway about the Fclef Bottomwave and NYC Fodera thing. The Bottom-wave basses, to me, seem very much the same only they don't offer that many variety in their models (mainly wood combos) as the Fclefs do, tho the shape, hardware and electronics seem identical, 2 band pope preamp etc.

2009年1月7日 · Basically, NYC, FClef, BW all made by the same shop in Tokyo. They have identical specs- save for maybe some neck profile differences with NYC.

2009年1月25日 · You know it seems to me that most of this mess is because of Fclef. But because of a commonly accepted opinion that Fodera is running that show in some way, Fodera is getting dragged through the mud. So I'll tell you what I know, candidly. NYC basses are made in Japan in a small shop by...

2014年6月27日 · Hi, I just to buy this Fclef custom classic, is someone can tell me what is this new preamp? is not a mike pope as before? "2 band, 18v, active/passive custom circuit" Thanks no it's not a mike pope preamp! they are using their own preamps now or some other guy makes them...mike pope said...
