FT only (perhaps FS later): Roscoe SKB 3005 Signature w/Buckeye top AND back!

[dcr]

Greetigns!

Okay, call me crazy, but I think I'm gonna offer this one up FT ONLY, at least for now. I'm only looking for specific trades, so don't be surprised if I say "no, thanks".

Pix here: Roscoe SKB 3005 Signature pictures from music photos on webshots

Here's the specs:

SKB Signature 3005
Buckey Burl top AND back
Ash body w/wenge tone plate
Wenge Wedge neck
Diamondwood nut
Matching headstock
Matching THG knobs
Abalone inlays
custom Nordstrand DC5s with "LG" cut
Series/parallel wiring on the p/ups
OBP-3 preamp

List on this bad boy based on the current Roscoe price list with all options is pushing $7k.

The ONLY trades I'm interested in at the moment include:

Roscoe 5ers with Exhibition-grade Amboyna tops. Prefer Spanish Cedar body and BEM fingerboard. Might consider other tops, but it's gotta be SWEET!
Sado NYC 24-5 with exotic top
FBass BN5 with exotic tops and BEM boards
Jerzy Drozd 5ers
Nordstrand SC5
certain Ken Smith 5ers
MTD 535s
certain Benavente SC5
Elrick 5ers

I might consider something outside this "wish list" so I'll never say never, but it's gonna have to be in the same neighborhood. And yes, I might trade down with cash from you if I like your bass.

SALE PRICE ADDED --- $2800 shipped CONUS. See my last post below for deets.

Thanks for looking!

Probably the nicest Roscoe I have seen yet, never played one either : O

Thanks! It plays great and sounds great too. Only really considering a trade because I just picked up another Roscoe 5er that sounds and plays even BETTER to me! Plus I've never been all that into the "wenge" tone, but I got this one on a trade I couldn't refuse.

I'll be more than happy to keep this one forever if I can't find exactly the right trade. Or at least until I can sell it to have my own custom Roscoe built

Looks like you put the Aeros back in it...what do you think of them? You change the pre out or leave the Bart in it?

Is a NY shop R-Bass 5 Double Cut exotic (burl) top "Foderaesque" on your possible list ?

[Nashvillefunk]

Aeros wired in series, bart pre still. Huge range of tones, as you probably remember.

[JOME77]

Bump for a very sweet looking Roscoe & great TB'er!

That ones definitely decked out!

[bassspielplatz]

How about a Roscoe LG 3005, Mahogany body w. Cocobolo top, all original Bart 18v electronics?

Appreciate the offer, Lil', but I keep hoping that whoever bought Clint's Amboyna bass will decide he likes the looks of mine better.

Although, if you ever start selling wallets, count me in!
