Details

**Now open to trades**
I would still like to net some cash though!
Interests are 5 string basses or maybe a 6 string bass. Shoot me a message and a picture. The worst I can say is no.

For Sale is a Roscoe SKB Standard Plus MusicMan "The MonkeyMan". This was the first ever MM that Roscoe built. I just purchased this bass from Pacman in January. It's an absolutely beautt. The price includes shipping to the lower 48 states only. Payment via Paypal only.

Thanks!!

Mahogany body
Monkey Pod top
Birdseye Maple fingerboard
Seymore Duncan Alnico V pickup
Aguilar OBP-1 preamp
Black hardware (also the first Standard Plus with black hardware)
There is a bit of buckle rash in one spot on the back of the bass (I can text you pics if you're serious)

Here is the link from my purchase so that you can get better details of this bass:

I remember this bass. I love how no matter the configuration - MM, PJ, JJ, Soaps - there is still that underlying “Roscoe” sound.

I’m a Roscoe guy from the early 90s and usually am not a fan of parallel, BUT the sound clip almost made me pull the trigger. That thing sounds great! Not too serious right now,but pics of the “buckle rash” might move me, if not too bad...I could always buy and sell something else I already have. Beautiful, too!

The toggle is a coil tap, right? 2 or 3 way? I was looking at a G&L Kiloton but this is about the same thing...only Roscoe? And active. I guess the G&L is a passive bass.

Yeah, I was afraid of that. This is a way cool bass, and Jon does a great demo. He's a great player. Good guy, too.

I've been getting a lot of trade offers. You are surely welcome to keep them coming. I'm mainly a 5 string player, but it won't hurt to throw something else out there. An active P/J will surely strike my interest, Roscoe, Sadowsky, Fender, or others.
