1996 Roscoe LG3005 Koa

Sign in to disble this ad
Up for sale is my beautiful Keith Roscoe LG3005.
It's currently strung with fairly fresh DR Long Necks and is equipped with bartolini soapbars and a 2 band Bartolini NTBT preamp w/ an internal trim pot.
This bass is just killer. It's got super low action thanks to Joe Glaser's excellent setup.
There is a worn patch on the neck finish from the 2nd to the 7th fret. This is due to honest player wear, not sandpaper or whatever else people use on necks. The fingerboard also has some wear in it from wearing rounds most of its life. Nothing major, just some indentation on the lower frets.
The frets themselves are 95%.
There is also some hardware wear. The black finish on the bridge is worn through in a few spots, but this obviously has no effect on the bass's playability.
The bass is well balanced and rests about 35 degrees above the horizontal when strapped with my 5 inch wide cloth strap. The weight is very comfortable, and I've played several 2 hour shows with this bass on the entire time. No discomfort. I'd estimate the weight at around 11 pounds. That may sound high, but the way it sits on my shoulders makes it feel very light.
String spacing is 3/8".
It also comes with a superslick KR hardshell case. Very portable.

I'm asking $1900 OBO shipped in the CONUS. I'm happy to ship internationally provided the buyer pays the difference from domestic shipping.
I'm not interested in too many trades, but I am after the following;
Fender custom shop Precisions
Fender Fullerton Reissues
Pre 1971 Fender Precisions
Fender Roscoe Beck V's
USA Laklands

Have at it Gentlemen. And Gentlewomen.

Hey Luckie, Beautiful piece of Koa! Do you mean 3/4"/ 19mm spacing?

It's totally possible, I used a pretty poor ruler to measure.
You're probably right. I'll confirm it later.
