Unique Features

Here is our latest Imperial guitar, built for a close friend of the Fodera family.  We have had the pleasure of building several guitars in the past few months, and are very excited to work on more in the future!

With a Walnut body, Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard, and 3-piece Mahogany neck, this guitar has a rich, articulate tone that can go from crisp and bright, to dark and moody with a flip of the toggle switch.  This guitar has a wonderful bite as well, which we all became quite familiar with as Vinny took his time testing out this beauty.

Aesthetically, this guitar is certainly worth mentioning for its gorgeous Flame Koa top and and BEAUTIFUL flower inlay on the fingerboard (designed by Vinny of course).  We definitely recommend checking out some of the close-up pictures included to the right!
