Yep. That's right. I am FINALLY able to rejoin the Roscoe club.
Just made a deal to trade my F Bass BN5 for an SKB3006.
This one, to be exact (#5638): 5638
Yes, I am happy.   |

Congrats again and welcome back to Roscoetopia!

Probably should have waited until I got it here to post, but dang, I've been lurking on the Roscoe forum for long enough now. It's been two years since I've owned my last one.  |

That is a beauty. Congrats! |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Cerritos, California | | Nice Ryan ! Good choice haha. Joel B. has an SKB with the Wenge Wedge neck and Wenge fb, and I think it sounds great. Gives a lot of clarity to the whole sound, and makes me kinda wish I had ordered my Roscoe with at least a Wenge fb -_-.
Haha and I was a little tempted to shoot a PM over to offer for my SKB... but when I thought about it a little longer... I decided it'd be best not to let go of the Roscoe lol.
Hope you enjoy it when you get it and let us know how you like it.

And it's about 5 degrees F here today. We've had a bit of a cold spell here again. The best was Saturday night when we were loading out after a gig---we had -40 F windchills to contend with. Needless to say, I'm looking forward to spring. |

|  | I've got to admit it's getting better | | Join Date: May 2005 Location: Duluth, Georgia | | Congrats, Ryan. That is a gorgeous bass! I made a similar trade -- a BN6 for a SKB3005. I missed my LG3000 (that I traded away) and its sledgehammer tone. I have that tone back now!
