RKM Custom Singlecut 5 B-Stock

Sale Price: $4,898.00 Original Price: $5,299.00

From RKM, Mexico’s leading builder of boutique basses, comes this masterfully handcrafted singlecut 5-string bass guitar. Built for professional players, it features a striking spalted maple top, a 5-piece hard rock maple and purpleheart neck, and a beautifully figured Chechen fingerboard. Designed for maximum sustain and resonance, the singlecut design enhances low-end power and clarity, making it an ideal choice for both studio and live performance.

This boutique bass combines premium tonewoods with world-class electronics. Powered by Nordstrand pickups and a Trickfish 3-band preamp, it delivers exceptional tonal flexibility, from deep, punchy lows to articulate mids and sparkling highs. The 35" scale length with carbon fiber reinforcement ensures stability, while the neck-through construction and medium singlecut profile provide smooth playability across all 24 vintage-narrow frets.

Attention to detail is evident throughout: a 3-piece Swamp Ash/Alder/Swamp Ash body for balanced resonance, satin polyurethane finish for durability, brass nut for enhanced sustain, and Luminlay® side dots for visibility on dark stages. With its unmatched craftsmanship, premium hardware, and powerful electronics, this RKM Custom 5-string singlecut bass is a true one-of-a-kind instrument built for discerning musicians.


NOTE
: Due to minor cosmetic issues encountered during the build, this stunning bass comes to you at a special B-Stock discount. See photos (neck/fret marks, finish divot, marring around jack).
