Hi dear Roscoe owners,

With all the technology, today is more easy upload our videos and share them via Internet....Like a Roscoe owner and fan I want look some stuff of the Roscoe owners group... Show your video link and share the specs of the bass and equipments that you are using.

Here's some videos from the my latest session at Studio D in Sausalito, CA. One of the coolest things about that day was that Ray Manzarek's Wurlitzer, Rhodes, and Hammond were all set up from the day before in a semi circle around the studio's house grand which you can see at 1:36 in the first link.

Yeah, Tommy! Great tone, great playing, great production!

Who says a Roscoe can't be slapped? I love that tone.

Thanks Greg,

This video is straight without any post or pre-production...This is as the people can hear and watch our sunday service online....Imagine the sound and video if this will be mixed and masterized...

Yeah the tone of Roscoe for slap is wonderful.... I love this sound too...

Question- is the "Geoff" the same guy who once worked in the aerospace industry and came up with the carbon fiber neck concept. ?

Thanks, oh yeah, cool vids dudes! "I'm, like, so wicked jealous" (said in valley girl voice).

Hi LightGroove,

Yes, this is my bass on tyhe hands of a good friend and customer that was trying the Aguilar Octamizer... My LG 3005 has a nick name owned, his name is "Mr Seller" the 80% of my Roscoe customers was converted to Roscoe, testing my bass....

Very cool videos!

This is my main bass, a awesome Roscoe LG with a Ash body, Buckeye top, and exhibition Cocobolo board. For some reason I tried to sell it but I came to my senses.

Tommy, you'll probably recognize this song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7ytO...eature=channel

And my old LG with a Redwood top:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooJ4_...eature=channel

I just bought a nice Century Standard Plus with a beautiful Cocobolo top and Ebony board (looks like Wenge to me but the seller told me is Ebony). I'll get it on Tuesday according to my tracking #. Can't wait!!

That is indeed a Wenge fingerboard, we've never put Ebony on Century Standard Plus. Don't let that change your opinion, it's a great bass anyhow!
