Brendan's "Vader" is now in my possession.

(Hmmm - may have to change "T. B. Player" to "Sidious")

God Bless, Ray

AWESOME!!!

...after years of wishing, you're finally family - welcome brother!

(...and don't sweat Brendan, he's working on something else with us, so he's still "family"

)

Welcome to the club.
I'm fairly new myself.

Awesome! For a couple of years it seemed like you hit every Roscoe "For Sale" thread out there but could never quite pull the trigger.
Great to have you in the Roscoe family! You should really love that bass. That all black look is really unique.
After you gig a while with it, let us know how you like it.

Congrats, Z!!!

As you obviously know, there's just nothing in this world like a Roscoe, and you got a KILLER one! Looks like there's one thing you can scratch off your GAS list!

I just picked up Roscoe #3 yesterday, so I know your joy all too well!

Welcome to the family, bro! Over the last year or so, I've spent more time talking to the fellow Roscoeheads than my biological family (they're all back in Canada, but.. You know...)!

DUDE!!!!

If that bass was left-handed, it totally would have been MINE!!!

Very cool purchase... make sure you add a little sound sample to the appropriate thread so everyone can hear the HOOOOOOOO PAAAAAAAAAHHHHH synthesized breathing in action!

**Staccato** · #11 02-03-2010, 09:40 AM

Congrats!

Any pix to follow?

**T. B. Player** · #12 02-04-2010, 05:39 PM

I'm actually thinking of putting DR Black Beauties on it. Then the only silver would be the frets...

Then I'll post pics. Can't do sound clips since I had to dismantle the studio when we moved last year (anyone want to buy a Mackie 1402 VLZ?)

All in good time...

Congrats on the Roscoe! I too am a new owner (since Sept 2009) and think the dedicated Roscoe TB'ers are very informative, clear, biased (in the best possible ways) and humorous. One thing I have learned after 25+ years of playing bass and (more so music); gotta have a sense of humor.
Roscoeheads do not take themselves too seriously, which is why I love this forum. "I likes me some humility"

Congrats, Player, and welcome! You've joined a fine, merry family.

In my case, being a middle-aged gut-pile with a bald spot and chops that scream "Don't quit your day job!" is extra insurance against taking myself seriously.

Hmmmm.. Sounds like the Lard Ass Bald Roscoe Owners Club (LABROC) needs to get started up. I can think of more than a few of us that belong in that club..
