Here's a beautiful 2008 Roscoe LG3005 in excellent condition that I just acquired in a trade. I've owned 6 Roscoes, played dozens more, and this is one of the nicest I've ever laid my hands on. Bass was spec'd and built for TB'er Joe Meyer (JOME77), and he did a mighty fine job! The Bart CB's and Demeter preamp is my favorite Roscoe electronic configuration to date; even better than the Nordstrands, IMO. The Demeter really opens up the top end, and the CB's get rid of the compressed mids the standard Roscoe electronics have. Bass takes a really nice, low setup. Bass has no dents, dings, and I really don't even see any swirls on it. Minty fresh.
This is the 50th bass I've owned, and it's just time for me to settle down. Zon and MTD basses are what work for me, so I'm sticking with those two brands from now on.

Hear it here!! $2350 shipped in the Continental US. Overseas shipping available, but all shipping, taxes, duty cost is on you. I won't lie about the value of the instrument, so please don't ask.
I would really, really prefer an outright sale, but given the state of things these days I can accept trades that send
at least $1500 cash my way. Trades I would like would be Fender Roadworn J or P, small Hi-Fi combo (GB, MB, PJB, etc.) for the bedroom, or a Boss GT10-B. Feel free to run other gear by me, but no exceptions on the amount of cash I need.
Finally, some pictures.
