Why is this Guy grinning from ear to ear????
.....I'm not sure but it might have something to do with what he's holding!

My GAS has finally been cured and it feels great to be a part of the Roscoe family! The bass is absolutely gorgeous and plays as good as it looks. Thanks Joe Meyer (JOME77) for the "custom" setup and attention to detail! The bass plays like butter! 
The bass has a Koa top with a Cocobolo center wedge and Swamp Ash body, natural finish. The neck is Maple with a Wenge center lamination and Maple & Cherry accent laminations. The fingerboard is Cocobolo. The neck has a 34" scale length and 19 mm/.75" string spacing at the bridge. All the electronics are Bartolini. More pics to come soon!!

leurastus, welcome to the family...I see you've been hanging out with what your wife (if you have one) and family will almost definitely refer to as a "bad element" with Joe there! 
That's a killer bass you got, really impressed me when it was done. Very solid and full sounding bass, nice attack too. I dunno if I could get used to the 34" now that I've been on 35" for so long, but that 19mm string spacing is what I'm all about! 
Congratulations on the new baby, and let us know if there is anything else we can help you with!!!

Oh yeah! He's got a wife! And I think that she actually wants Lionel to spend more time with me! Why just the other day Lionel said that she told him that he'd be a lot better off if he just took me out!    |

I doubt that Lionel knows 'cause I didn't even know!
...of course I'm sure that Lionel knows the definition of "proclivities" because he's in the field of education!
I'm just out standing in my field..... |

I don't know if I can thump like you Sha975 but having a Roscoe sure does make it easier!! It's a good feeling to know that I can actually join in the fun the next time we have "Roscoe Day" @ Joe's house! Be blessed!  |
