Yup, she's up for sale...

$2100 shipped lower 48... $40 shipping credit to anyone else. Price is firm.

Specs (These were all given to me by Gard at Roscoe):
    SKB3006 ($3995)
    Lefty ($175)
    Exhibition Myrtle Burl top ($400)
    Spanish Cedar body
    Natural finish
    Matching headstock
    Bartolini 3-band preamp
    Bartolini/Roscoe pickups
    19mm string spacing ($200)
    Pau Ferro fingerboard ($30)
    Diamondwood nut ($75)
    Black hardware
    Roscoe hardshell case - mint condition ($200)
    Custom matching myrtle ramp, built by David King ($100)

MSRP is $5075... street is about $3800, give or take.

This bass is a 9.2 out of 10... it's in fantastic shape.

Sound Sample (This is a little ditty I recorded for the Roscoe forum at TalkBass):

I've thought LONG and hard about whether I should do this or not, and... well... I think I should.

I've come to the point in my life where I feel like it's pointless to own something and not use it the way it should be used. This is exactly what's going on with my Roscoe. It hangs in my music room... a lot. Too much. I've gigged with it a few times... I LOVE how it plays... I LOVE how it sounds... I just never reach for it when I go to grab a bass.

I'm just not the "six-string guy" I thought I was... and I've been in denial for a few months about it... but, I've come to accept it now.

Having said that, it's time to pass this supremely awesome bass onto someone else who will play the hell out of it.
