I am contemplating moving a few of my basses. This Roscoe is dead mint and never gigged. It is my baby and spends its life in a smoke free environment. I have not had it very long either. It was delivered this year. Here are the specs.... Hi-Gloss Bubinga top (no sapwood), Bubinga headstock, Lined (hard) Phenowood fingerboard (killer for fretless basses)... The lines are flush aluminum, Bartolini Soapbars, Aguilar OBP-3 Preamp, Hipshot Hardware, Dunlop Strap locks, Custom Ebony radius shaped ramp and Roscoe Hard Shell Case. This bass plays like no other fretless I have ever tried. Moving this because I owe on some things and time to thin the herd once again. I only have 13 basses... I will figure the selling price soon but feel free to shoot me some reasonable offers. Build time wait on these is 6-8 months and suggested retail without case is near 5k.... take 25% off that. I am thinking mid 2k. Here is the eye candy. The pics do not do the bass justice.

Yes, this bass is a 35" scale but a very comfortable 35. It's going up on the bay soon.. maybe even this weekend if I have time.

This guy is going back up on the bay very soon. It is the best freaking fretless bass and if it were a righty, it would have been long gone.

Takers?

On ebay you say that it is only for the US.

Is it still like that?

Would you consider shipping to Canada?
