Acebassmusic Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) [b]SOLD[/b] For sale or trade is my original USA made Skjold '92 Custom 5 string. Lovely bass and I have enjoyed our time together but I’m looking for a change…… I would give it a 9.5 / 10 for condition. No dints or marks that I can see only some slight surface “scratches” which I couldn’t get to photograph! 5 piece bolt on neck laminate construction of maple and purple heart String spacing at bridge currently 17mm (can be adjusted 16 to 18mm) Nut width 48mm Scale length 35” Ebony fretboard Black Hipshot hardware Ash body with an amazing maple top. I don't know the technical term for it (flamed / curly etc.) but it sure is purdy and looks like caramel! East/Skjold Preamp 9 volt - See the pic below for full explanation (its not a pic of my bass but explains the pre amp well). Volume (pull passive mode) Pan (4 position - neck, both parallel, both series, bridge) Treble (cut / boost, pull for ultra hi frequency boost) Mid (sweepable mids with cut / boost) Bass (cut / boost) Passive tone 2 Skjold dual coil pickups Neutric locking jack Edge fret markers Weight 9lbs It comes complete with fitted Skjold reinforced gig bag New this would be about £3,600 plus import tax etc. Have a look at some of the Pete Skjolds work here: [url="http://www.skjolddesign.com"]http://www.skjolddesign.com[/url] Trade wise I'm pretty much sorted for basses at the moment but ones I could be interested in are Fodera Emperor, Mayones Jabba, JCR CM or ST, Sei Flamboyant etc. It would need to be a 5 string with active electronics, 24 frets and strangely enough I do like a highly figured wood top. Looking for £1,650 plus shipping Edited August 14, 2015 by Acebassmusic
