SKB3000

Hi Gard,

are there any pics of a four string SKB tucked away in the dark recesses of the Roscoe Archive?

Scoop, no, at this time I have no photos of SKB 4 string basses available. We haven't built one in several years (not one since I've been here), however we do have two in the schedule right now, so soon we will have them to photograph!

There are no pics... Then I have to take a leap of faith.

Poptart will be forwarding a firm order on my behalf for an SKB3000 within a matter of days. I'm still thinking exhibition flamed redwood top, spanish cedar body, standard maple and purpleheart neck, african tulipwood neck, with nords and audere.

That should sound nice, I reckon..

Scoop

That sounds amazing, it will be my first custom order and so far the basses I have received recently have been of an amazingly high standard!!
