Total Watts

  1. Roscoe LG3005 up for sale. I bought this a few months ago, but I’m probably not going to gig it regularly, so it’s up for sale. I’ve done two gigs recently with it, but it’s not for me really. Putting it up, for what I paid for it- though there’s a brand new set of DR Fat Beams that I put on it last week. 35” scale. 18mm string spacing. 45mm nut width. 9.4-9.7 lbs weight, slightly different between two scales. One piece body, quilted top, matching quilting on headstock. Bartolini pick ups. Bartolini NTMB-918F pre amp - 4 knob (vol, blend, stacked treble/bass, and push pull mid, which I think changes the mid frequency). Trim pot at rear, which I believe may be a master gain out- similar to some Status basses. It’s pretty much immaculate, with a couple of tiny indents on the neck- shown on photos. Three of ferrules have a split, but this is just cosmetic I reckon- the guy I bought it from was a guitar repairer, and he said he’d never gotten around to replacing them. USA Hipshot tuners. Comes with the Roscoe branded hard case. Trade wise I’m interested in Sadowsky Will Lee 5 strings (Japanese or German). German Sadowsky 5 string single pick up MM style. PJ5 Sads too. US Lakland 5P. Or maybe NS CR4M or 5M. Also Vincent 5s - so that sort of thing. Can add a bit of cash for the right trade if required. Thanks for looking.

  2. I used to run one of these with the matching 210. Epic cabs
  3. I'm not an expert, but I thought that was the basis of the suspended sentence over here too. Although it's not really ever invoked. I could be wrong....
  4. I picked this up 3 weeks ago locally to me, on the way to a ska gig (used my regular bass), then used the Roscoe the next night at a function band gig- thought it’d be more fitting. It came with black sticky strings, so put on some others and gave it a decent clean up. There’s no doubt that it’s an absolutely superb bass, but still unsure if it’s for me or not. The 35” scale on it is unnoticeable really, but the 18mm spacing, weirdly is (I’m so used to 19mm). So the jury’s still out on it for me.
  5. I bought this last Friday week, so have had it now for around a week and half. It was local to me, and stopped on the way to a Ska gig. I still used my Jazz type 5er that night, but used the Roscoe the next night for the party band gig. I’m not a fan of these sticky black strings on it - also they’ve appeared to leave sort of tram line residues all over the fingerboard, so I’ll clean them off when I change strings. Will have to have a search on what most folks use with these basses. It’s completely different to my Japanese Sadowsky Will Lee 5 - which was the idea really. I’ve no way to measure, but I’d say it’s 18mm at the bridge, as opposed to the 19 on the Sadowsky. Also the fingerboard radius is pretty flat, and the action is crazily low, making it a breeze to play. As mentioned by others, the B string is epic. Sorry that the pictures aren’t that good…
  6. That's exactly how I am with my Will Lee 5er. Had a lovely light Japanese Modern, but wasn't being used after I got the WL. GLWTS
  7. It's a slow 'ol market at the moment unfortunately. I bought Chimike's DB750 last year, and that'd been up for a while I think. I've been looking and debating whether I should have a second one- as a fail safe. But unsure if I could really justify it- ha
  8. Just going to bump this and reduce the price to £250 picked up. If I get no bites at this price, then I'll stick it in the garage under a sheet. I gig around East Anglia, so could do a meet up on my way I suppose.
  9. Is it the poor spelling all across the description?
  10. Used the X version now for a for weeks now, and I’m pretty much sold on them. Had a Ska gig with ample stage room, and a Nothern Soul gig the week before in a pub that was pretty tight space wise. It’s just so easy to roll in, stand it next to my speakers, take the lid off, and store it behind the speakers. I unplug the bass lead off in the break, and pop the bass back in the Enki. I just find it absolutely brilliant. Paul
  11. Just updating this ad. I’ve also got two pristine Bergantino cabs up for sale- 212HD and 410HD. They’re up for sale at £350 each, but I’ll chuck them both in here with this head for £1500- so 100 less each. Thanks
