Artist Collabs

Built for the artist. Available to the world.

Every Instrument
Starts with a Conversation

When we work with an artist, our first priority is to understand their vision — what they need from the instrument sonically, what they want it to look like, and how it needs to perform both in the studio and on stage. Every Artists Collab is purpose-built to meet those expectations exactly. Some of these instruments are available for individual orders; others are released in limited batches. Contact us for availability and details.

Janek Gwizdala

International Jazz Bassist

Janek Gwizdala is one of the most respected and influential contemporary bassists in the world.

Sharon Renold — RKM Collab
3 Instruments in this collaboration
Available — By Order

Sharon Renold

Bassist

Our collaboration with Sharon Renold produced three instruments designed around her approach to tone and feel. Each bass in the series was developed through a close dialogue about what she needed the instrument to do — and how she wanted it to look doing it. The result is a set of instruments that are unmistakably personal.

Manou Gallo

Bassist

A single, unique instrument built in close collaboration with Manou Gallo. This bass is the direct expression of one specific vision — Manou's.

Charles Cave — RKM Collab
In Process — Coming Soon

Charles Cave

White Lies

"As simple as a volume knob can be."

Charles Cave, bassist and co-founder of White Lies, brings a minimalist philosophy to everything he plays — raw, direct, and deeply deliberate. Our collaboration with him is currently in development, built around that same principle: nothing unnecessary, everything intentional. More to come.
