Just curious, why are you selling this? I mean, you are taking a drop of $1525, are you the original owner? Great looking bass by the way...

Yep. Original owner.

I was a six string player for a while. Then while having this bass made I fell in love with my old fender jazz bass. Go figure. I've not played it much since arrival :-/. It's an incredible instrument. It deserves to be played.

Hey Ed -- not an insult at all. I'll be sticking with the price as listed- a steal!

A very "Jimmy-esque" bass for sure. If I played a 6 (for the 4th time) and my wife wouldn't kill me for real, I'd get this bass.

I don't play 6's but if it were a 5 I'd be all over this one. I owned an LG 3005 (maple/mahogany body) many years ago and it had a killer sound. I really miss that Roscoe...plenty of growl...

I am curious how much does this bass weigh... I remember seeing a Roscoe 6 here a while back that was close to 9lbs which is great for a 6. My 6 is a decent bass but it weighs in at 11'5" so it rarely gets played.
