This RKM Custom 5-String Bass is a true boutique instrument, built with premium tonewoods and high-end electronics for players who demand clarity, depth, and dynamic response. Very good Near Mint Condition.

Known among players as the “Mexican Fodera” for its boutique construction, premium materials, and professional-grade electronics.


Featuring a neck-thru-body construction with a multi-ply neck made of Walnut / Quartersawn Maple / Walnut, this bass offers exceptional sustain, stability, and resonance. The body combines Walnut wings with a Swamp Ash center, delivering a balanced tonal profile with tight lows, defined mids, and articulate highs.


The stunning Buckeye Burl top gives this instrument a unique, high-end aesthetic — no two tops are alike.


Loaded with Aguilar AG 5SD-D2 pickups and the powerful Aguilar OBP-3 preamp, this bass provides a wide tonal palette suitable for everything from modern gospel and fusion to studio and session work. The control layout allows deep shaping while remaining intuitive.
