FT: Roscoe SKB-3005 One of a kind. MUST SEE! Gorgeous!

High Resoultion pics here:

I'm putting my very unique like new Roscoe SKB-3005 up for a possible trade. I'm not pushing this out the door unless a good trade comes along. I'd be happy keeping it. It sounds as good as it looks. It has a fatter tone than most Roscoe's because of pickup positions. HUGE! but not muddy. These are the specs:


Roscoe SKB 3005 SN#5860 (made in april 2008)
Cost over 4 grand new.

SPECS:

34" in neck scale (custom option)
Walnut Body w/ figured walnut back
Ebony w/sapwood top
Ebony w/sapwood Fingerboard Fretted
Nordstrand DC5 (custom option)
Custom Pickup Location, 60’s Jazz Bass (custom)
Aguilar 3 Band Pre replaced with custom Demeter preamp
Black Hardware
Graphite Nut
normal Roscoe 18.3mm string spacing
Case
9.5lbs on my analog scale

Looking for something of equal value:
High End JJ or JP style 5 string
34" scale
Prefer active preamp
Nordy, Sadowsky, Bottom Wave, Alleva Copollo, etc.
might consider a 4 string or trading down plus cash, not really looking to trade up as I have no cash to offer beside the bass.

Here are some quick pics for people who are to lazy to click on link above for higher res pics:
