FS/FT 2009 Roscoe SKB 3005...a beauty !!

Sign in to disble this ad
Greetings,

As much as this baby purge pains me I have to continue to move the rest of my high end gear to cover the bills. I will say Ive owned 5 Roscoes in the last 4 years and this is by far THE BEST! I am a gasaholic as many of us are but this really cured any pains.

Specs:
Model: SKB-3005 ($3750)
Top: Spalted Flame Maple (+$450)
Body: Swamp Ash
Finish: Tobacco Burst
Preamp: Bartolini 3-Way/18V
Pickups: Bartolini CB
Neck: Standard
String Spacing: Standard
Fingerboard: Bird's Eye Maple, Fretted (+$175)
12th Fret Inlay: None
Nut: Hand-Carved GraphTech
Hardware: Black
Case: Hardshell (+$200)

The bass sounds exceptionally growly...my favorite part...This nails the Roscoe tone in spades with a little more edge overall. The pickups are a little substandard as they are the Bart CB's in liue of the Standard Roscoe Barts. The neck is straight and THE lowest action Ive ever played. Ive looked the body over and there are no blems worth noting, simple surface swirls. Nice balanced weight..approx 9 lbs. Sale includes the Roscoe hardshell case.

I have to downsize and prefer an outright sale. I am interested in lesser 5 string fretted basses + cash if need be.

Looking for $1900obo shipped and insured in the CONUS.

Sunlight pics...these are waaay closer to the actual color. Also Roscoes finishing process is so deep that you have to see their work in your hands to really see the beauty

I was the Second owner of this bass and it is killer indeed. The only reason I traded it was to get a 6er. Great price too!

Bump for GREAT taste in basses!
If this was a fourbanger I'd be all over it,
Nice finish.
