I have an LG3004, and of course I need another. Just looking for an offical stance (if there is one) from Roscoe.
Also, neck dive issues on LG3006 vs SKB3006?
I would prefer the smaller body, but if the dive is worse, I can suck it up and get the bigger boy.
Thanks!

We don't involve ourselves in the used market at all, so we can't be of any assistance, other than confirming specs and/or build dates, sorry...
On the LG 3006 versus SKB 3006, if EVERYTHING is equal (and it rarely if ever is! ), then the SKB will most likely be less prone to neck-dive. That said, I have never really had any issues with comfort while playing an LG 3006 on a strap.

...anytime on the help, always happy to give assistance to a fellow Roscoehead!

Sorry for the tangent - congrats on really nice instrument! And the Polar Bear is awesome. |

I have tried to play every bass that rolls thru that store.
That said, I might have to sell it so I can pay for the 6. I am trying to sell some of my modulus basses but they are not going fast enough.

BTW, I'm not generally an 'amber' person, but that dark ambercolor, on the web anyway, is vera vera nice. Is the FB on the 4 pao ferro? looks like rosewood.
