You should hear and play it! Truly world class, as anyone who has ever tried a Skjold already knows.

Like I said....

[Basso Gruvitas]

I've heard this bass when the former owner had it here in Dallas. It KILLS!!!! (And it doesn't even look back after it does!)

Great balanced meaty tone. Articulate.

Buy this with confidence.

Yes. Pete has verified the spacing is adjustable from 17 to 19mm, with 18.5mm being "optimum" (where it is now).

I'm guessing this has a killer slap tone as well yes?
I am interested. Here's my email. todsterkl@gmail.com
Is this bass still for sale?
