Monarch P Classic

The Fodera Monarch-P bass guitar continues our Standard Classic series, but available in a passive configuration featuring Seymour Duncan’s latest retrospec'd series of pickups providing accurate vintage tone with Fodera playability and construction. The Monarch P is built in Brooklyn, NY utilizing the same tone woods and crafted from the same hands as our Custom Series of instruments, providing players with over 30 years of legendary Fodera craftsmanship. Available in 4-string configuration, the Monarch P is available in either alder body/rosewood fingerboard or an ash body/maple fingerboard.

While the Monarch P is passive, a control cavity has been routed should you want to add our Fodera/Pope Standard preamp in the future allowing for easy installation. The new Monarch P features Seymour Duncan’s retrospec'd pickups which are the culmination of their 4 decade spanning archive of data on pickup design, detailing every nuance down to the smallest detail. With this collected knowledge, they have developed a pickup that provides period correct, authentic vintage tone. The Monarch P is available in 8 classic satin finishes including Fiesta Red, Candy Apple Red, Vintage Sunburst, Black, Olympic White, Charcoal Frost Metallic, Pelham Blue, Transparent Black, and Transparent Cream along with your choice of a Black, White, or Tortoiseshell pickguard.
