Bill,
The p/u's for 5 strings are 2 for Roscoe Barts and 3 for Bart CB's. |

God Bless, Ray | Maybe I'm wrong. I know both of mine are listed as Roscoe Barts on the spec sheets, but that doesn't mean they are still that, as the spec sheet lists my SKB's pre as a Aguilar, but I know that was changed to a Bart later.
Maybe they were different runs too, as you said.

What the heck is in my SKB?!
Should I try swapping pickups with my LG, if they are different?!
If they are CB's, are they stock?!
Where is the Jade Monkey?!
Eh, I have some string/nut issues that need to be fixed on both first, so I'll ponder this for a bit.
Are the CB's and the Roscoe Barts any different looking from the underside?

He will respond; he is a great guy and very humble, as well as one helluva player. Good Luck | Hey thanks for the info. and the suggestion,i'll check it out.
I've been thinking about doing some switch-arooney on my bass,so this option sounds really good.I guess that's what people refer to when they say "edge" when using the Aggie pre.
Btw i still love the sound of my Roscoe specially now that i switched to a different set of DR's.

Bill,
The p/u's for 5 strings are 2 for Roscoe Barts and 3 for Bart CB's. | After reading this info i went to check up on my LG3005 and to my surprise my bass actually has cb's (3 screws),i actually thought i had Roscoe's.Hahaha guys again thanks for the info,i'm glad that i kept asking around and not spent the money on p/u's and or pre.I guess that's why every time i saw a video of someone playing a Roscoe i thought mine does not sound like that.
Anyways.....Anthony's bass looks and sounds great.

It appears that both version of p/u's have 3 mounting screws. I guess that the only way to tell on the 5 string p/u's is open the back and look at the wiring (Roscoe Barts are 4 wire w/gnd and the CB's are 2 wire with shield gnd).
Sorry for the misinformation and confusion!  |

|  | Well, Ahoy Paloi | | Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Cape Cod, MA | | Here's a recent clip of Anthony and the Roscoe: Anthony Crawford's Bass Solo @NAMM Bass Bash 2012 - YouTube!
The first part is the tapping solo stuff, but I like the 2nd half (3:32) of the video where they grove more with the band. You can hear the aggressive Aggie / Bart combo.
Note: the bass never sounded this good when I owned it
Must be the California sunshine, yeah...............that's it. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
