I wasn't a fan of any singlecut designs when I started playing. It's partly due to the non-exposure to these body outlines in my earlier playing days; I always thought my Ibanez was all there is to it when good designs are concerned. When I saw the above
Fodera Imperial bass, I thought that singlecut design was ultra ridiculous- how could any considerable upper fret restrictions be of any good to anyone...
...until I saw the back of the instrument, of course. Fodera makes the effort to bevel their neck-body vicinity to make it very accessible for the player to reach the very end. I now understand why the brand name invokes a certain elite material reference. Wish there's a guitar version...
