Details

I recently got this excellent example of a Roscoe Century Sig, but find myself wanting a J bass these days.

Spansh Cedar body
Spalted Quilt Maple top
Natural finish (red back)
Maple/purpleheart wedge neck
Exhibition Cocobolo fingerboard
Nordstrand Dual Coil pickups
Roscoe Hardshell case or Roscoe gigbag

The preamp was a 4 band Audere 3ZB which I changed to a Bartolini NTBT with a passive tone control and active/passive switch. I would gladly include either preamp or both if you wish.

Bathroom scale weight puts it at 9.1 lbs which agrees with previous owners' weight measurements.

Sale price is $2500 shipped in Canada/US OBO

For trades I'm looking for a high end J (Lull M5V is my first choice, but 4/5 string Lull, Sadowsky, etc. considered) +/- cash depending.

Beautiful bass Jeff!

Killer spec's too. This one will make someone very happy!

Bump for a great TB'er and Roscoehead ....... Even though he's looking to replace it with a Lull or Sadowsky!:D

I have been thinking about returning to the original Roscoe tone.

I hear you Clint! As good as the other flavors of Roscoe's sound, in the end, nothing makes me smile as much as playing my traditonal sounding Koa/mahogany LG-3005 with Roscoe Barts.

Bump for a beautiful bass and great TB'er to deal with!
