EDIT: Seeing as you play a Thumb, the short-ish LG upper horn should be no issue for you.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Kansas City | | Thanks for the kind words After hearing so many fantastic clips and eyballing some gorgeous handiwork, the time and deal were right to give one a shot. My only concern is my severe love of concave-body basses, which is certainly no fault of the instrument but has already claimed my otherwise-incredible Dingwall. Being a smaller body a la my Thumb (thanks again Greg! ), I'm keeping an open mind about it. Quote:

Hey Gard - what's the difference?

Hey Gard - what's the difference? | I'm not Gard, but I play one on TB.
Bolivian Rosewood comes from the place Mike Tyson "faded into" after Lennox Lewis made Tyson call him his new Muslim Name "Pau Ferro X".   http://proxy.espn.go.com/espn/page2/...simmons/020611
God Bless, Ray

BTW- Nice bass, my good man. Enjoy every delicious note. I play in church 3 times a week and heard my bass on some recordings (for the first time) at our annual meetings we had last week and was AMAZED. I truly can say, ever since I found Roscoe basses I'm not even interested in trying other fine instruments...I've found MY feel, MY tone. Period.
...I've also learned to tolerate Gard and find an appreciation for him that otherwise might not've blossomed.
...who loves ya, baby?  |

Scheduled to be in my hands on Friday and, naturally, I'm going out of town for the weekend, but I'm planning on spending some quality time with the rig that evening. Very interested in hearing this in direct comparison with my other basses.
