FT Roscoe LG3005 Buckeye Burl HOT!!!

Sign in to disble this ad
I had this Roscoe up for sale then pulled it, but I think I want to go to a 4 string so I am offering it again. It has over $1000 in upgrades and is in really nice condition.

I really want a 4 string Roscoe SKB or LG, I will straight trade for either of those two. I will entertain other higher end 4 string trades so let me know.

Here are the specs.

Buckeye Burl top $600 upgrade
Alder body (less mid sounding than Ash)
Maple/Purpleheart/Maple neck
Purpleheart/Sapwood fingerboard
Highly sought after Demeter Preamp $250 upgrade
New Bart Classic Pickups $250 (have original as well)
Hipshot Bridge
Gotoh Tuners
8.5 pounds of pure tone

Trade offer

I have a new Tobias Killer B 4 string that I would like to offer up. Cash added. Let me know what we need to do to make this work. The Tobias sounds like a piano with the S/S strings on it. Great bass, I just gave up 4 string. Truthfully the best sounding bass I have.

I have a Roscoe 5 string unlined fretless that I love so I am very interested in this kid. Let me know.

Heh, heh. Drip. Drip.

Hey Dougie, you selling water pipes in addition to organ pipe cacti?

Payday (for most people) BUMP for a crazy deal on a sick Roscoe from an even crazier & sicker seller. "Dealer" is not a nice word to use in this post.

Thanks again for sharing your new found wisdom...

I found a link with your grandpa enlightening the rest of us concerning your erratic behavior. Those disciplinary trips to the "claw shed" certainly took their toll!

Good observation Clint...as we view more video "data", we can assume it's only a matter of time before we start seeing more "in depth" intellectual overflow from Poachdog's genetical "data bank".

Bump for a hot bass...very surprised "you know who" hasn't been offering some high-risk "investment" trade for this beauty.

I can't see through all the smoke being blown around in this thread. . . *cough cough*

Is CactusmanDoug rolling his doobies or was that a not-very-well-concealed offer to try to trade you a cactus for this bass?
