...someone escaped from Area 51...

...and had these two difficult to explain, yet intriguing photos to share...

We make no inferences from these photos, we are just sharing them, to get the "truth" out to all you Roscoeheads....

Are those what one might call an SKB or LG "Standard Plus"?!?!?!?!

Or am I seeing things?

You're pretty good Addison!

Roscoe can't be expanding the "Standard/Standard Plus" line to include the other body styles, can they????



God Bless, Ray

First the Century Standards, then the CS Plus, now this?
You guys are killin' me.
The SKB is my favorite body shape, not just among Roscoes but of any bass on the market.
Cough up some deets, man. I'm assuming Bart/Bart? How about hardware? Etc.

Sweet Jeebus!

Dat's the thing what took me on its ship an' vi-oh-lated me last night..

Seriously, though... This is awesome! Now, all I need is an excuse to justify getting one... Fretless, of course

"Three Roscoes is not enough!"
"Odd numbers of anything are bad luck... Just ask that family down the street with 3 kids."
"My other Standard is lonely."
"All the other Roscoeheads are doing it..."
"I lost the gig because my regular fretless is too fancy."

Hmmm... Anyone wanna test these out before I shoot myself in the foot?

Bill's got it right.

BTW Gard, Are these full on production or limited run or what?

My guess'd be similar (if not identical) pricing/specs to the Century Standard/St Plus?

God Bless, Ray

Man...if I wouldve known the maple they were using on these basses had the personality it did I would have gone that route...oh well; there's my new excuse...but honey its got a different color fretboard

Do you think its by accident Gard has gone mia...or wait...could he really have been abducted..
