For the record, my hack photography skilz are not translating the color quite right, there's a "coppery" hue to these photos that is not there in person, it's much more of a "fuchsia" color IRL....guess I need to go get some more schoolin' at the Vroom Vroom & Pacman Academy of Fine Photography...

That quilt is awesome! Also, the MJ pickups look great on the LG body. The final weeks always seen like forever.

On a thread called Tat's Expecting" I would think that it should be called a "Delivery" rather than a
Pickup".

You're absolutely correct. It should be a delivery and not a pickup, but I'm too lazy to go back and fix it now.

Might even be "done" and ready to rock today.



...sadly, due to circumstances beyond our control, Tat will have to pick this one up in PA on the way to the Bass Boot Camp instead of here at the shop.

That's okay. Delivery will take place the 28th prior to camp and will still make her debut at Bass Boot Camp on 1 March. But the Gardfather was kind enough to taunt me somewhat before she was handed off to the stork.




















I'm highly flattered that Gard wanted to keep her. But if it sucked, it wouldn't be a Roscoe.

Hey, I could have given you the "Vroom Vroom" treatment...

Truth. This bass. Money.

Good thing it was an LG, and I'm too fat for it.

It didn't hurt anyone, but someone didn't have a CLUE what he was getting until he opened the case.

He deserved it.

Both the trepidation in advance, and the pure joy when he did (I take care of the GOOD guys, and that's one good dude.)



...the the ungrateful Q#$@^^%& sold it.

...if you can get Glenn to let you take it when you get there, that is.

When I saw this thread in the main forum listing, I totally thought it was "Tal's expecting."

Glenn let me have her (although not entirely without a fight). And...she's amazing. The intonation is spot on through both octaves on all strings and the balance is exceptional. You were right, Gard, she's a chunk, but I expected that from mahogany so it's no surprise. All in all - I'm a happy camper.
