Welcome to Fodera

Experience the ultimate in handmade bass guitars...
Experience Fodera.
There is a reason why many of the world's most prominent bassists trust the crafting of their instruments only to Fodera.

All our custom bass guitars are crafted by hand in our custom guitar shop in Brooklyn, New York, using some of the oldest, rarest, most beautiful wood in the world. Our highly skilled artisans collaborate with musicians to construct handmade bass guitars and solid body electric guitars that are works of art, responding and resonating like no other instruments available on the market today.

Fodera Basses: Made by musicians, for musicians.
Musicians don't come to Fodera for pre-manufactured, cookie cutter instruments. Musicians choose Fodera for 100% unique, custom basses and guitars featuring rich tones, distinctive styles and unmatched playability. We carefully create each instrument to match the owner's preferences for style and tone.

Contact us today to see for yourself why Fodera basses are preferred by some of the most discerning bassists in the world. Dealers welcome!
