Monarch Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) Hi All, *** [b]REDUCED TO £1,450 (Price or Trade Value won't update)[/b] *** I've decided to put my Roscoe Century Standard 5J+ for sale. This is by far the best instrument I have had the pleasure of owning/playing over the last 14 years and my only reason for the sale is that I currently need the money tied up in the bass for other things and I'm just not playing enough at the minute to justify keeping it around! As you can see from the photos attached below I purchased this bass from new on 20th March 2013 for Mark at Bass Direct (for £2,150). I'm looking for [b]£1,450 [/b]and I would be willing to drive to meet somebody halfway if required. If you live in the Leicestershire area you are more than welcome to come and try the bass. Anyway, if anybody has any questions please feel free to send me a PM and I'll get back to you ASAP! [b]Specification[/b][list] [*]5 String (BEADG) with a [b][i]35"[/i][/b]scale [*]24 Frets [*]Swamp Ash Body with a Redwood Burl Top (with a Natural Oil Finish) [*]3 Piece Maple Neck with a Birdseye Fingerboard (Graphite/Steel Reinforced) [*]Hand carved Graphtec Nut [*]Bartolini J Pickups in the Roscoe positions [*]Bartolini NTMB Pre Amp (Bass, Treble and High/Low Mid (Push/Pull) Cut & Boost) [*]Roscoe Deluxe Padded Gig Bag [*]Weight - 3.7kb/8lb 3oz [/list] [b]Condition[/b] This based has been gigged and played so as such has some flaws (all photographed below). Besides the list below everything is in excellent/mint condition.[list] [*]Finger nail marks in the body underneath the strings [*]Scratch starting from the very edge of the bass and going around the body contours towards the back of the bass [*]A couple of scuffs on the headstock (which killed me at the time!!) [/list] Like I said before, any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Monarch Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 New week, new price! I realise my initial price was a tad (read...quite a bit) over ambitious so its now down to [b]£1,500[/b]. Thanks for the interest so far, may also now be open to trades (4 or 5 string and as long as cash is my way) so drop me a PM if you've want to make a deal. Thanks, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
