Here's another incredible value from Roscoe. The bass (Serial Number C018) is a 5-string SKB Standard Plus: solid Ash body w/ Chilean Laurel Burl top, 3-piece Maple neck with Rosewood fretboard, 100% made in USA (Greensboro, NC, to be specific).
Yep, it's true! You can have an active 35" scale 5-string that is 100% made in the USA for well under $3K!! Unbelievable.
