Thanks

I would also consider trades, though I'm not gassing for anything right now.

the roscoe is a 35"?

funkucan'ttouch 03-03-2013 09:17 PM

Is that melt 7 34 or 35 scale ?

jeffthebassist 03-03-2013 09:36 PM

The Roscoe is 35" and the Conklin 7 is 34"

jeffthebassist 03-03-2013 09:49 PM

The Sadowsky now weighs 7.4 pounds. Prior to removing the pick guard and the D-tuner it weighed 7.75 pounds. I will include both tuners. The clear pick guard is all I have.

Dings, dents on that melt ?

The Conklin 7 "melt" was built for Ron Rummage it can still be seen on their website <http://www.conklinguitars.com/time_capsule.html>
This bass had been played by Ron as his main bass for several years and has player wear. Ron had Bill Conklin check this out for issues before I purchased it. I have owned this bass since about 1999 and it is in the same shape as I got it.
So there are cosmetic issues such as thumb marks near the low string between the pick ups, slap marks on the body,and a scratch on the quilted maple.
On the back there is also wear including a hair line that Bill Conklin checked out.
