eubassix Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) An instrument not so well-known (as yet) in the UK: this is a Skjold (pronounced 'schold', I think) Exotic Custom with a body of spalted beech, (front and back), and a seven piece maple and purpleheart laminated neck. The fingerboard is Bocote (an upgrade - even on this Exotic Custom, which is the top of the range) . The electronics / pickups are EMG, and overall it's a great sounding (and looking!) bass with a super light weight (8.2 lbs). 35" scale (with zero-fret), Vol - Pan - Mid with +/- and stacked Bass/treble:- £ SOLD !!!

poptart Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 This is a great Bass people, and it is in "as new" condition. Mark
eubassix Posted April 3, 2008 Author Posted April 3, 2008 Thansk for the positive comments .. and BUMP
poptart Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 No probs - it is pronounced Should, as in shoulder without the "er". This is I believe a 2006 bass and was made as a show piece. I had this for a while on behalf of the previous owner and it always brought a smile to my face when I played it. It has a great slap sound and is generally a very versatile instrument as you would expect. Plus - as is always the case, it is way more beautiful in the flesh than in the photos. We will not be getting any Skjold 4 bangers in stock for a few months as these are all hand made by Pete himself. So this is a great chance to pick up a rarity and a very good one at that! Mark
