    This is a reluctant sale if there ever was one. My one-of-a-kind Rbass (Roger bass) Single Cut 5. Check out the specs!
    • Bookmatched Koa top
    • Mahogany/maple body (confirming with Ray)
    • 5 piece neck with mahogany stringers
    • Koa headstock
    • Handshaped asymmetrical neck
    • Glockenklang 3-band preamp (if you've not read up, these are superbly transparent)
    • Nordstrand Jazz Bar 5 pickups
    • Matching Koa knobs (Inside row: push/pull vol, blend. Outside: treble, mid, bass)
    • Wooden pickup covers and ramp (not sure what wood)
    • Hipshot hardware
    • NOW INCLUDING A BRAND NEW GATOR HARD CASE!
    The only blemishes I can find are a pair of small/light nicks on that back of the neck and a few light hardware rubs. Neither affect playing.

    Recently received a basic setup and fresh set of HR Steels. If you're looking for a Fodera without the usual price tag, this guy will get you close!

    Easily worth twice this asking price. These are some of the finest basses available, along with Muckleroy and Devon basses. Someone will be supremely happy....

  17. Amazing Bass !! Is the bass still available for sale? I love how thick the top-wood is. The craftsmanship is beyond incredible.
    I have to ask this, so I apologize if I offend you! Is that your best price? I'm very interested in buying it.

    Thank you, Jase
