Roscoe Century Standard Plus 4 - SOLD!

This one was a special order for Armand. It arrived today, and now it's headed to NY! Thanks, Armand!

This is one of the prettiest Standard Plus basses I've seen yet (IMHO), mainly due to the incredible finish on the body. This bass is unreal in person.

Fantastic, great value and great bass. Name one entirely USA made bass company that can hold a candle to Roscoe for quality, price and football talk ?

None.

Gorgeous, I hope he enjoys it!

You ain't kidding!

Just hanging about has helped me learn a lot about the game in the last few years, and given me quite a few names and plays to research.

Dude, you NAILED that in the photos! I'm so glad you did that, I didn't get a chance to get any pics of it here...that thing KILLS, by the way - just a great bass all around. I'm glad it was missing a string for my taste, frankly...because it would have hurt to ship that out if it'd been a 5er!

Awesome, I will run to the bank and cash it straight away.

All joking aside- I speaks the truuff.

That Eye of Sauron body top is top notch.




Ray, I think I should be sort of on payroll for Keith. After all I am "Tree Boy" and the instruments are made from trees.
See the connection?

Yes but um, wouldn't you have to give Keith or Gard wood?

I'd review the contract on that procedure before signing up.



God Bless, Ray
