Roscoe web site??

Snarf · #1 01-28-2008, 01:18 PM

So it seems the Roscoe website really hasn't changed much in the last few years. Any chance a redesign will happen, with up-to-date info and updates, along with a real endorsement page (ie not just every customer that owns a Roscoe)?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Okay, so before posting this but after I wrote all the above stuff, I went to roscoeguitars.com and effing A, a new Roscoe web site!! Nice job! Can't wait for the content.

By the way, the sidebar won't stay on the last set of menu options from page to page. Sure you guys already know.

So did Gard put you up to asking that question?

Man! The new website looks very nice guys!

....by the way, pick-up prices are not on the pricing sheet.

Lovely new site, save for the sidebar issue. I can't wait for the pages to be all filled in with History/Bio information.

Jerry Ziarko · #4 01-28-2008, 06:28 PM

And my all time favorite looking bass on the home page....NICE

A new fresh look for the site is fantastic. Now how much are those Nordy 6 string pups?

xkimsungminx · #6 01-28-2008, 09:42 PM

site looks much nicer!! and much more modern hahah

doctorjazz · #7 01-28-2008, 10:43 PM

On a side note, I noticed that it now says you are offering 8-stringed models. Pics? Details?

Great design. Just need a couple more pictures of those lovely instruments and you're set.

The side bar is now staying on the last set of menu options from page to page.

Gard,
When did you say the drawing was for the free Roscoe that's being given away to kick off the new Web site?

bassthumpa · #10 01-29-2008, 09:30 AM

Lookin' good!

emjazz · #11 01-29-2008, 01:30 PM

The models all say 34" scale is standard..

That looks to be a typo...when you open the price list it shows that all basses with more than 4 strings are 35" scale.

In talking to Gard at NAMM he told me that the 34" scale is a $350 upcharge.

Gard · #13 01-30-2008, 08:53 AM

The scale length issue was a "wording" problem, that has been fixed.

The site is brand-new, and will have some hiccups here and there as we get it all up and running....right Clint?

Tommy Slap · #14 01-30-2008, 10:40 AM

Wowwwwwwwwwww.... excellent work...the new page look very professional and interesting.... I´m feeling super excited for looking that beauty bass on home page, the same that I can play every day in my home.

Blessings to all Roscoe Family,

....well, instead of being coy about it, I'm gonna just fess up and give all credit and thanks to the guy that did the site update (and is still putting up with a lot of grief from myself and Keith), CrashClint.

Clint man, you outdid yourself on this, it looks great and navigates so much better. You sir, are the man.

JOME77 · #16 01-30-2008, 01:51 PM

Great job Clint!

Even Spiderman would be proud of that Web job!

xkimsungminx · #17 01-30-2008, 01:58 PM

Ooh cool I had no idea a fellow Roscoe-head got his hands on fixing up the site

. Great job by the way Clint, we all appreciate the update!!

CrashClint · #18 01-30-2008, 02:21 PM

Thanks for compliment guys, I appreciate it. Yeah, I got hooked on Roscoe basses, my wife calls me a Roscoe junkie because everytime I see the pics posted of the new Roscoes I start jonesin'.

It has been fun working on the new site. Gard, you and Keith have not been any grief at all. Any time you migrate from an old site you run in to bumps, like the String Spacing, I probably copied and pasted wrong, but we got it worked out.

Gard and I were hanging out a little yesterday and came up with some cool Roscoehead ideas. You will have to stay tuned.... to the same Roscoe Channel to find out more!

Hey Tommy, yeah man, that is your bass on the homepage. I didn't think it would be fair to put my bass there, but I thought about it.

I have always thought your bass was pretty awesome looking.

Snarf · #19 01-31-2008, 07:21 PM

Hey, I saw on the fretboard wood options page, it says for birdseye maple "double graphite required" or something like that. Does that mean that the truss rod is reinforced if it's got birdseye over it?

edit: and is this a recent development?

poptart · #20 02-01-2008, 09:54 AM

Me likee to new Site, nice work CrashClint
