Fodera (china) visits THE HOBO DEPOT "DEMO"

[@ryan5529]

Johnny man love the positivity and the bass, keep on going good sir!

[@bassman51able]

Hey my bro. I am laughing because I have one of those basses, its nice but i am getting ready to put in some different pick ups. I will be putting up videos soon. lol great video bro love it.

[@Tigerraj]

Haha love it ! Sounds really good, in regards to lowering the strings maybe try counter sinking the bridge a little and see if it helps. 😊

[@michaelb.42112]

I've NEVER seen a more enthusiastic bass reveal, Johnny !!!

[@efrainlorenzana2455]

I really fell in love with the sound it has, it has good support on the B string and its high frequencies are clear... I need an electric bass like that, the color is also beautiful! 🥰😍👏🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@josomoura]

Top fera demais

[@arnlmndza]

you made me smile bro :) 5:13 - 5:19 it's crying time because i'm so happy haha

[@Breakbeats92.5]

The eccentric musicians are always the best players and nicest cats around.

[@johnniecameron8829]

You seem to be a really cool dude,love your videos

[@Offbeatmilan]

Hey bro thanks for posting these! You convinced me in getting one of these basses… if you have some suggestion on a honest seller that maybe is the producer and not a third party, thanks!
Also, suggestions on what to change to make it great? TONE MONSTER, Emg pups (which ones) … mechs/ bridge? Let me know if you can it would be much appreciated!

[@MrMorkev]

The problem with the Chinese vases is that there is no angle on the neck so the bridge hate sits up too high

[@Rightupbass]

Johnny man ya videos are always fun man.keep em comin my brother.

[@JamesVaughn-v3e]

Man you sho know how to make a bass sound super Super good!! 💯💯👍✌️😊

[@michaelanthony9068]

Take of the electronics cover so you can see the unpainted wood, and you’ll see it’s made out of PLYWOOD !!! But yea, it’s pretty, especially the “not a” Fodera logo on the headstock.

[@crow3043]

I like this name fodera, because in the brasilian portuguese it's like *"THE FUCKER"* , in a good and bad ass way!

[@yawkrap10]

You crack me up bro !!! Love ya man, God bless you !!!

[@markbass354]

haven't seen Hooty in a long time
HI HOOTY '''
Thanks Johnny for your entertaining videos ,
you got magic Johnny and you got God.
God is a good thing to have along with Hooty

[@matthewpalomino2762]

Johnny, I am watching this video for the first time and when you are funkin' it up at 5:30 oh man I was digging it. Hope you are doing well!

[@KeithCopeland778]

MONSTEROUS TONE!!!!!!!! I NEED TO HAVE SOME EMGS INSTALLED IN 2 OF MY BASSES!!!

[@bassimprovjams3772]

That China sounds killer!!!! Very bright and clean!!! I would totally own one of them

[@edennard1]

So would I, however I would install Nordstrand Big Singles and a Aguilar OP 1 preamp

[@KitBasher1]

Blue milk! It’s the bantha milk bass

[@norgadovazquezjr7973]

Hey Johnny, first and foremost, I must say you are the man! I appreciate you humor and expertise. I also admire you being a man of God and using your talents to bring Him Glory. God bless you brother!
I was wondering... If i brought a Ken Smith (China), would you hook it up for me? If yes, let me know the price and the amount of time you need. If No, then maybe you can give me some insight or direction and how to do it.. By the way, I live in NJ, originally from NY. Not sure where you're located. Thx brother, hope to hear from you soon. -Junbug

You crack me up Brobro! I'm looking at getting a Chinese YinYang 5-string, If It needs setting up (I'm sure it will) can I send it to you? Hit me back Brobro, peace.

[@rickrolli7091]

I've got an Ibanez SR805 DTF that has a twisted neck. Would this be a candidate for the Hobo Depot?!?

[@algonz8432]

Hi thanks for sharing your experience. Wondering how the bass is doing after all this time? Is the neck holding up? Thanks again!

[@rmccain99]

I would like to hear that coming from two Ampeg 810 cabs and one Aguilar 3600 head. I think that head goes down ta two ohms.

[@catbrian22]

I want this bass!!!!!!

[@kaufboys237]

Where did you get this bass? I couldnt find this one anywhere :/ Please help

SIT FOUNDATIONS MED LIGHTS

[@laszlophoto]

Hey bro! Love your videos especially the "Szar Kaka" intro that you heard and repeat saying but you don't know where it came from. You must have involved with some Hungarian companion because what you say is a two versions of a same thing: crap. Keep shining, keep posting your high spirited videos and never stop playing. And of course don't forget the Szar Kaka!

[@edcolins5498]

Ha,ha laughed all the time during review, you're funny guy !

[@LONGCASTLE777]

ed colins ....me 2...lol

[@portcaddo23]

Where you get the bass from

[@martinheath5947]

Surely "detent" is the regular default instrument setting. If you roll EQs all the way down you are cutting those frequencies from the pickups' natural output. P.S. Your birdie friend with his feet in the air might be getting a sore butt from supporting all his weight on it :p

[@tolabassist3302]

Actually some preamps are boost only

[@martinheath5947]

@@tolabassist3302 Yeah, I know. That's why my StingRay doesn't need or have a centre detent on the treble and bass controls

[@gregggriffin5072]

Hi Johnny, I'm a subscriber to your channel and I have to say I appreciate all your hard work as you make it very clear how a person can customize an instrument from China to actually sound killer. Keep up the great work. Wish I had a small percentage of our chops. I'm thinking about buying a Chinese Ken Smith, do you have any experience with them? before and after the Hobo Depot? Again thx love your channel. Yes I'm a Bass player from New Jersey.

[@LONGCASTLE777]

gregg griffin ....i have one in the shop now

[@henryfreeman7748]

How does the neck feel on that bass? It looks really fat that may be ok if you have big hands, it does sound boss that there ax.

[@henryfreeman7748]

That there is a buttaface girl!!😉

[@gsharpslayer3287]

Lol a lot of screaming and slappin going on in Johnny’s shed

[@andreswaringer1476]

With the stuff that Johnny Lee did it sounds Spector-ish

[@steveaguilar7625]

Sounds better than a Fodera 😹

[@holdencaustic]

Damn, what was the take home price on this?

[@BradMaestas]

I wouldn't spent $60 for it let alone $699 then having to dump more money and time to get it to play halfway decent.

[@martijnlie-hap-po9611]

color blue me out fo'sho! .. yeah I did that blue instead of blew

[@davidleonreyes]

What's the scale length on this bass?

[@creamydistortion]

39

[@rockersun]

Sounds good. Sounds better than my American fodera .. frankly!

[@michaelanthony9068]

Dude, as an honorable man, don’t you agree the Fodera logo is a LIE ? There have always been copies of Fenders, Gibsons, etc. But we all agree to put a Fender or Gibson name on a copies’ headstock would be a LIE. It would be wrong. So, sup ?

Uhhh Johnny... you missing anything... ? Likr a few brain cells..
Lol... you can thump though

[@joe700700]

hi johnny..i like your videos.m they are really fun to watch....but in my opinion you shouldn't be doing videos of custom copy from China....its doing injustice to the actual bass makers..but that is just my opinion..

[@LONGCASTLE777]

Joezer D ..ooooh I feel ya...but if I take that to heart..i want be able to demo any jazz basses...there are million of basses in Brazil,China, and other countries that has the same looking basses as Smith,fodera,tobias,elrick,etc...sooo...i feel ya...and thanks for checking me out

[@joe700700]

johnny long yes they have imitations..but they dont use the original names do they? the ones from china use the actual names and logos...i would be fine if they didn't use the actual names and logos..

[@funyun000]

johnny long True that.

[@pharmerdavid1432]

Joezer - I wouldn't worry too much about it, because they aren't fooling anybody into thinking its a real Fedora, and it provides free advertising using his name...

[@hugeshows]

@@joe700700 This is exactly the point. It's one thing to copy the design of the instrument, another entirely to use their logo. It's mad corny, like a fake Rolex.

[@sureshhotwani8895]

its just a cheap bass wih a single cut.....nothing like Fodera.....

[@andersonalmeida4424]

FAKE !

[@KingPorter]

That color sucks

[@PoltergeistWorks]

That bass looks horrible even from looking at in on a video... Just look at the trussrod cover - says it all about the attention they give to guitarmaking in China. Square angles everywhere, good thing the neck is not square (probably close to it lol). Plus sorry to say but this is a crime, supporting crooks who steal designs and logos of an American company, bringing it to the USA should and I think IS breaking the law (my guess is if the customs knew about it they would seize it). Can't afford a Fodera, buy a Squier - it will sound much better than this.

[@LONGCASTLE777]

PoltergeistWorks you come my site destroy my bass as well as my work and then turn around and send people to Indonesia...NAYBE ALL MY FRIENDS AND I SHOULD GO TO YOUR SITES AND SEE IF U OWN ALL AMERICAN PRODUCTS ..because we all love our country...but the way you are talking..you have NOTHING IN YOUR HOUSE OR YARD THAT WAS NOT MADE IN AMERICA...."OR DO U"
u have the right to project opinion..i love FODERA & Vinnie,work is amazing and his work ethics are amazing...but there are millions of basses that look like LEO FENDER master piece..from all across the world...yet We American as well as the World has renamed his work and sale them as well as play them EVERYDAY,,,,Everywhere...well...than knowjs for you thought
BASS-ON

[@pharmerdavid1432]

Nobody is fooled into thinking its a real Fedora, and it provides free advertising, so no harm done. You should worry about things that matter - sheesh!
