This is probably a question for Gard, unless the answer is yes and some of you have custom finished Roscoes.

So, does Roscoe offer custom finishing, or just a standard list of colours? If yes, I'll be sending off a question to Gard about a crazy idea I have.

This info is much appreciated. This is the start of a saga that I forsee ending with a new Roscoe in my hands 10-14 months from now. :D

I think they will, but if not, threaten to talk about how the Panthers beat the Saints. Thatll change his mind.

:D

Jeff, it's possible that we can do something, please PM or e-mail me what you're looking to do and I will get an answer for you.

Talk all you like, here's a simple rebuttal:

Saints record: 3 wins, 1 loss
Panthers record: 2 wins, 2 losses

:smug:

Wait man, it's still early in the season :D . I went to the game, Reggie Bush is pretty damn good, but I'd take Steve Smith any day of the week.

Haha, yeah I know we played like crap for a while, especially when Steve Smith was out. I will say this though, the parts of the game I was able to catch, it looked like a really good, close game.

I envy you so much. How were your seats?

Man, I needed a sherpa and a O2 tank :eek: , but besides that it was cool...except for when they almost gave the game away with less than 2 minutes left :spit: .

Haha, I know what you mean. I went to a Virginia Tech game two weeks ago and sat in the student section. I felt like I was half a mile above the game. Still super fun though. Glad I didnt see that; I didnt catch all of the game. :spit:

Hey, gard. Show them a pic of the custom finish Jon Jon bass. It'll make you want to roll one up.

Shawn & Dave, yeah, but y'know Reggie Bush ain't our offense, he's just a part of it, take him out, you still gotta account for Duce McAllister, Joe Horn, and Marques Colston; take Steve Smith out and...well...

:D

...by the way, we'll almost without question be 4-1 by the end of the coming weekend...

:hyper:

I don't have a clue what you're talking about...

(PS, wait'll you see it with the red & green DR strings! :eek: :hyper: )

:cool: Duuuuuuudeeeee

PS, wait'll you see it with the red & green DR strings! :eek: :hyper:

Damn man, that is pretty sweet... how common in the diamondwood fingerboards with the darker coloring near the edges? That would look pretty sweet on the fretless that I'm thinking about...:ninja: :ninja:

Shawn

Shawn -

That's the "rainbow" diamondwood, it can be done that way anytime, the color choices that are on the final board just depend on how we glue the board on the neck and how the colors are arranged in the piece. The guys are good at figuring out that stuff to hit colors that you'll want.

If you check it out, we've done this type of board for a fretless before, for TBer Stachio:

Man that just gave me some major GAS pains! I had remembered seeing the fingerboard, just couldn't remember who's it was. Gard, we may have a conversation coming up...:ninja: :ninja:

Hey! That's the same record as the Falcons!;)

...and yes, you are welcome for our gracious southern act of compassion on Monday night a couple weeks ago!
The truth is, we'd rather lose a game than be accused of spoiling the inaugural party of the rebuilt N.O. Superdome!:D

.....don't expect that kind of compassion and southern hospitality when you visit Hot "Lanta!:p

Dude...puh-leeze...

:smug:

...we figger'd out y'all's offense, it's REAL simple: hawk Vick, and they're sunk.

We'll spank ya in the Jaw-juh Dome just like we did in the "new & improved" Superdome, count on it. You guys have a one-dimensional offense...

Nothing to add to this thread, just wanted to share this pic with Gard. The quality's not that great, but it was a LONG day of celebrating leading up to reopening the Dome. This was pregame.

:confused:

PLEASE tell me those photo's are "photo Shop" generated!:eek:


...of course I guess if you wanted a green, yellow and red Roscoe but couldn't afford but one that would be the answer!:)

This bass is real and looks, sounds fantastic in person. The owner has a jamaican stage persona and will play reggae on occasion hence the Rasta colors. The owner picked it up today and was blown away. He's a great player and happens to be the cousin of a very famous bassist. He came to the shop today at 11am and played it until 6pm. He could not put it down. It was cool except for the fact that I close at 5PM on Saturdays :)

Well I'd have to say he's got one unique looking Roscoe!

Yeah, it's not for everybody but it's perfect for this guy. Keith and the guys did an incredible job on it.

First, Adron, you were THERE? Lucky bizzatch!!! :)

Finally, yes, Joe, as Spidey has shared, it is indeed the "real thing", and it looks even cooler in person than in photos. I'll have some finished pics up on Monday, I didn't have the time to get them edited & posted Friday. It plays and sounds incredible, I actually had to pick my personal bass up to remind myself that I didn't need another fretless! ;)

Spidey, good to hear that he dug it, I figured he would...I'm guessing we'll have a visitor on Monday! :)

My best friend got season tickets for his birthday. We were right in front of the blocked kick, 26 rows back. :hyper: I don't think I've ever experienced anything quite like that day.

Now back to your regularly scheduled Roscoe thread...

...but still here!

Here are the photos promised of the "Rastaman" SKB 3006, completed with the custom DR strings, full front, closeup front:

Headstock:

Two different closeups of the body:

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Wow... what the heck do you say to a custom job like that?

I say good thing its not mine!!!!

J/K..........but not really.....

Y'all should have strung the A and D strings with Maxima strings.

Two different closeups of the body:

Inspired by a flag purhaps?;)
