Liked and Saved to my Favorites. This is presently the lowest priced Roscoe 6-String of TalkBass, Reverb, & any other sites I search regularly.

This is an outstanding deal for a beautiful bass! I wish I could handle the longer scale length and the wide spacing, those seem to be popular nowadays, but my tendonitis won't let me :(

Roscoe makes great stuff and somebody is gonna be super stoked GLWTS!

And an outstanding sounding bass fo sho...I only sold this bass because I could never wrap my head around the C string. Six string players buy with confidence...great bass and great seller!

Where are my Roscoe 6ers out there?

It's definitely a beautiful Roscoe at a fantastic price! The maple neck/fretboard is also a huge plus for me. Being in Canada, I wouldn't need to concern myself with Rosewood/CITES issues. I just have too many commitments on my plate at the moment and in the near future (with Christmas a few days away, having committed to a new bass build in early 2018, and my wife & I will have a vacation in February).

Only reason I sold it was my lack of prowess regarding the 6-strings.

Thanks for the response, Doug. I can play it, but since I mainly only play at Church, it never gets played whereas I rotate my five strings like they are candy. I am lazy, so when my strings start to die, I switch to the next Roscoe. So if I don't play it, I would prefer to find something that at least I might at least play a bit more.

There is no more comfortable neck than the Roscoe 6 - except the Roscoe 5. :cool:

I've had a couple Roscoe 6 string basses. They are amazing and I wanted to be a 6 string player, but it just never caught on for me. If you do/want to play 6 string, this is a fantastic price on a bass that can last you a lifetime.

@SteveC, that is me in a nutshell. I can play it just as well as the 5, I just choose not too. So, I am trying to branch out into something that I do not have. I currently have 3 LG5s with the Bart PUs and Bart Pre. I have already spoken to Keith and will send one to get Pleked, bridge update and add some Aguliars to switch things up. Love the Roscoes

Im debating sending mine to get quad humbuckers installed with toggles for each pup for single coil and humbucking and maybe an active passive switch. Make my bass as versatile as possible as I love the neck more than any bass I've played.
