Yum!

These are most certainly one of the best value for money models in the bidness...

100% Roscoe tone & feel, and with the Plus models, the look too, at a serious discount...

Amen, Brother Bill. If I didn't already have two 5 strings and a 6 string Roscoe I would buy this puppy. Serious bargain for someone who can appreciate it.

Oh and Greg, Just got an email in on my office PC, seems like the big Brown Truck just delivered a package from Rocket Music to my house!. Looks like it's time to leave the office, grab a 6 pack and go string some basses! Great service, Bro.

Man! Great looking Roscoe at a great price! These Standard Plus models were a very good idea.

Rosewood board looks great with the top too!

....and the bridge and tuning keys match the frets! Very nice touch!

You know Joe don't like it when the pickups and hardware don't match...

lol

Actually I really like the chrome on this bass! I just never noticed how the satin matched the frets. That really makes me feel better about the satin. Honest Injan!

This is all part of my thereby!

Man do I like the Chilean Laurel Burl

I just don't have enough Rocket Bucks saved yet.

And I'm low on printing ink



God Bless, Ray
