Details

I had this one up for sale a while back, but took it down because I love it so much. Now, financial obligations force my hand to put it back up on the block.

Skjold Custom Series 5:
- Flame maple top with matching headstock veneer
- Spanish Cedar body
- Cherry finish
- Cocobolo Fretboard
- 7 piece maple/purple heart neck
- Zero fret
- 35" scale, 18mm spacing, radius is 12" at the nut and 18" at the 24th fret
- Skjold split coil pickups
- Skjold/East preamp with 4-way pickup selector switch, passive tone control, concentric stacked treble/bass pot (pull top knob for treble boost), and concentric stacked mid pot (top knob is cut/boost and bottom knob is mid frequency sweep)
- Dunlop strap locks
- 8 lbs.
- lightweight Gator case

The tone of this bass is big and beefy, with a nice open ring to the strings. Not dark at all, but has a natural sounding mid-scoop. You can easily dial-in lots of different tones with this versitile preamp.

The condition of this bass would be mint, except for a few indentations on the back. They're not bad, but they are there. This is my lightest bass, weighing in at approx. 8 lbs. Ships in a nice lightweight Gator case.

$1800 shipped in the CONUS. I hope this goes to a good home. If it sells, I will sorely miss it.

Pete Skjold PM'ed me and informed me that my description of the mid stack was not accurate. So, it is now updated with the correct info. Thanks, Pete! :)

Bump for a cool bass and a great seller. I have played this bass and it is killer. And, it is SUPER light.
