For sale Fender Roscoe Beck IV

Please Read: Unfortunately this needs to be said. Do not purchase this bass if you are not absolutely sure you want it, can afford it, your wife is ok with it, etc. I will no longer issue refunds. Once you send the money, that's it, the bass is yours.

Here you have it. Rare as hen's teeth, (maybe not that rare) the Fender Roscoe Beck IV. My favorite bass Fender made and easily the most versatile.



Translucent Crimson Red over premium alder body. Bill Lawrence designed alnico II pickups. Each can be tapped for parallel, series or single coil. Pull the tone knob to favor the rear pickup. Pau Ferro fret board.





I don't know what that white line is at the bottom of the bass. I took a second look and it’s not there but it does have a few light scuffs on the back. Here's more pics from the TB'er I bought it from: SOLD - Roscoe Beck IV
