So you are movin' on that project Roscoe of yours, just when you got it the way you wanted it too! I have a feeling you will return to the Roscoe camp at some stage.

The pursuit of perfection........................

About perfection.......

Jokes aside, I've been after Scott's basses for ten years, I can not pass this opportunity!
I think Roscoe basses are up there with the top of the top, but as always it's a subjective matter!

So long mates.

Mo,
I got a chance to play an Ambush bass a few months ago. It was a nice bass but I wasn't crazy about the setup. I'm sure that it could have been tweaked a bit more though.

I got one of my last long term GAS ventures out of the way this summer. A neck-thru Smith. It too was nice but after about a 3 month span I ran back to my Roscoe's. They just fit everything I do.

I'm glad that I got it out of my system though. If you don't try then you'll always wonder......

Good luck!

The setup is the last of my worries... it's a very easy fix.
Like I have mentioned, I have to do this.... Scott said I'll have few days to evaluate the bass... so...

We'll see

Wow, more than a year and a half.....

I'm at home, sick like a dog's s$$t and I have some time to "waste" here on TB.....

After all, I'm still playing my Roscoe..... IT IS a great bass!

I got the Ambush's and I love it.... definitely a different bass than Roscoe, but not that far off.

Hope y'all doing great and still spanking your Roscoe babies!

Hey - I hope all is well, your boy is looking all grown up now, mine is too, where does the time go!??

I have a shop full of amazing basses but I still love my one and only SKB3005, I get tempted but am so happy with mine, it just feels right.

What's up Mo?

Good to hear from you. Sorry that you're a bit under the weather but I'm sure that good health is just around the corner.

I'm still spanking my Roscoe and actually have a new Roscoe fretless 3005 due to arrive tomorrow!

Don't stay away from the roscoe forum so long dude!
