Hey good evening TB. Like so many of you, I am a gear ADDICT. Some time ago Gard messaged me regarding a question I had, and we had a back and forth for a good long while. He is absolutely a gentleman and a reflection of the great service Roscoe has to offer. I haven't had the good fortune of owning a Roscoe bass (yet) but the ones I have played have been top notch in every respect. Heck, they had me thinking I was a 5 string player again for a while 
Again, I just wanted it to be known that Gard went out of his way to be kind and helpful, which I appreciated at the time and continue to now. "Smaller" companies often depend on word of mouth to further their business, so I felt it important and appropriate to put these particular words out there for the TB public to consider.
Thanks again, and I look forward to more conversations with this gentleman! |

Keith got smart to hire the guy IMO.
Top notch guy, top notch company.
God Bless, Ray

Glad to see this picked up a bit of life.
Be sure that all the NYC bass addict chaps are hearing the same message detailed above. |

+1 to all the above.
Gard's one of the few that says what he'll do and actually does it. |

| | Well, Ahoy Paloi | | Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Cape Cod, MA | | | On a serious note, I wish more companies had the customer service that Gard provides for Roscoe. The world of retail would be a much better place to deal with, for sure.
Now we have to tone it back a bit or the guy will start to get a big head! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
