He answered all my questions, gave me suggestion on wood combos, pretty much anything I needed he helped me with. While I didnt buy a new one, Im pretty sure my next electric bass will be a new Roscoe.
Heres mine:  |

The top is Madrone Burl. Very cool stuff! |

I love my Roscoe basses. Punchy strong low B strings, great playability, tonal diversity and aesthetically pleasing. Kudos to Keith, Gard and Jay lewis.

Got to get in on this! 
If you've been on TB very long then you know I'm a serious Roscoe guy! I've been playing them for just over 10 years and have owned a total of 10 Roscoe's
(3 LG 3005's, 3 SKB 3005's and 4 SKB 3006's). Currently I have a SKB 3005 (Spanish Cedar body, spalted maple top, African tulipwood fingerboard, Demeter pre). It's without a doubt a keeper for life. I'll attach a pic.
I'm also in the market for either a nice SKB 3005 or 3006 (fretted). If you know of any mint used ones, send 'em my way!

Everyone keep those pics coming.

Man it's nice to see that bass again. Every time I see it, it has something to say. Hope you're doing well.
