SOLD
Roscoe SKB 3005
Built in 2008
Koa top
Ash body
Cocobolo fingerboard
Bartolini pre amp & pups
34" scale
19 mm string spacing
Roscoe hardshell case
This bass sounds great, plays great and is in excellent condition. No scratches or dings. The wider string spacing and 34"scale length give this bass more of a Fender/Sadowsky feel than the traditional Roscoe. The tone is still all Roscoe and the B string is as good as any I've heard on 35" scale basses.
SOLD

Now the TB'ers that say they would like a Roscoe but "if only if was a 34 scale with the wider spacing" won't have an excuse!
They know who they are .......
Bump for a very nice bass and a great TB'er!
......I've played this one and it plays and sounds very good!  |

With the bart package it gets the warm p bass on steroids tone. Would have kept it if I didnt have a century with the same neck but 60's jazz pickup spacing. |

It'd be the perfect Roscoe for me (34" 19mm)
