The Story
I’ve been lucky to see quite a few Skjold Design Basses in my day, but the Skjoldslayer model is one that always grabs my attention. That’s why when someone emailed us luthier Pete Skjold’s latest creation, I was hooked.
This Skjoldslayer 4/34 features a burl maple top in a killer black out stain finish. The swamp ash body is complemented with an ash neck topped by a figured maple fingerboard. Skjold fits the bass with his Skjold Tone Audio split coil pickups and preamp. Finally, the bass is held together with Skjold/Hipshot hardware.
