Bass of the Week: Kauer’s Cubist-Inspired Draken #012 Stuns in Antique White
The Draken from Kauer Guitars is an incredible design they describe as “angular, cubist, and angry.” However, Draken #012 features an antique white finish and gold hardware to lean more into the grandeur and luxury of Art Deco.
The bass has a Spanish Mahogany body fitted with a roasted maple neck and wenge fretboard. Kauer fits the Draken with a pair of Lollar Thunderbird pickups. Finally, Hipshot hardware ties it all together.
