Looking for an extraordinary, sustainable bass that stands out visually and sonically? Introducing the Shattered Relic Gold Top Bass, an exclusive creation from the Devil & Daughters Paintworks series.

This instrument has been custom painted by Daniel from Devil & Daughters Guitars and features a stunning, handmade, one-of-a-kind mirrored scratchplate. The finish is achieved using relic techniques on golden age formula nitrocellulose, giving the gold top a beautifully aged look layered over classic seafoam green. The maple neck sports a vintage amber, heavily worn appearance that subtly continues onto the fretboard. All surfaces are sealed in clear nitrocellulose for long-lasting protection. The texture is left on the body so you can feel the authentic checking cracks, while the neck and fretboard remain ultra smooth for maximum comfort and playability.

Beneath the surface lies the Mars-Tronic Deciboost—a hidden superpower activated by a push-push knob. Instantly ramp up your volume to drive your amp into a gritty, dirty growl, or back off for a subtle boost; the level isn’t locked in, so you can fine-tune the boost with the internal trim pot to match your rig and style. Between the premium hardware, individual volume and tone controls, and the  MM-style humbucker and J-style single coil pickups, this bass delivers both sonically and visually.
