I am absolutely THRILLED to let you all know about something Pete Skjold and I have been working on behind the scenes for over a year now. Skjold designs will be releasing and custom building the Damian Erskine signature bass! This is the 6-string (although it will be available as 4,5,6,7…whatever you want. Completely custom built to order) that I have dreamed of… both in playability and tone. With an:
- extremely deep cutaway for 100% un-hindered access to the upper register
- over-wound pickups for a deep and rich tone
- brand new pickup mold design to incorporate the finger ramp into the pickup design (2 pickups in one pickup mold so ramp players will have a completely unified and comfortable setup)
- East pre-amps for complete tonal flexability, very stable design and neck for action as low as you want it.
-That coupled with some stunning good looks has seen my dream realized.
This first build has far exceeded my hopes and expectations… please enjoy some pix!
You can email myself or Pete through his website for more information regarding this beautiful instrument.

Looks killer man ~ A very organic and unique body. Would love to hear this monster in person soon. How much does it weigh?
Congrats to you and Pete

Hey Damian
The Bass looks wonderful, do you think you could post some audio samples on the website so we can hear those tones? :¬)
I love the tone that David Dyson gets from his SKjold.
All the Best
posted a link on the site (and facebook, etc..) of a recorded sample of the bass. Check it out!
