Beautiful bass, Congrats. Question- I am not familiar with the Audre system personally (My 2 Roscoe's have Bart/ Bart and Aguilar/Bart); what does the "Z Mode Switch" do? Is it a mid-range option? Just curious. Thanks and enjoy.

I am actually in an Army National Guard Band in Iowa - the 34th Army Band. The pic in my avatar was taken last summer when my unit was backfilling for the Army Material Command band at APG in Maryland.

One of my friends who transferred into my unit came from the 1st Cav Band at Fort Hood. Is this the band to which you are assigned?

Welcome back otto!
Great looking Roscoe!

You need to keep this one a while and get to know it.

Well, sad new I desited that I had to part from this bass. So I Sold this beauty. But good thing is because I have plans to have one made to my specs. I need this bass to be a 34" scale. I will be back soon with my new master piece.
