This is one of the very first Roscoes I ever received, so it's over two years old at this point. I've got several in stock that fit that description (or soon will), so I'm going to make a serious effort to record these basses and make some specific comments about each.
This one has aways been one of my favorites tonally, and I think you'll hear why in the clip. It's got a thick, ballsy tone that I love. On the neck pickup, it's basically a P-Bass. With both PUPs blended, it has that signature Roscoe tone in spades. Oh, yeah, and it looks pretty fantastic, too!!

As usual, I recorded the bass direct through my
REDDI tube DI by A-Designs. The drums were programmed in Sonar using Session Drummer 3.
One fun note - I've been getting into drums lately, trying to dig a little deeper into beats and rhythyms. My technical knowledge of that stuff is just about zero. Jerry mentioned his drummer holding down a clave with his foot a few days ago, and I was like the heck does that mean?!? A little wiki reading lead me to the main clave patterns, and I based this beat upon the rumba clave. I programmed the wood block (which plays the rumba clave pattern) first, then I filled in with a funky beat around that. Then I picked up the bass and started looking for a song to play. A random stab in the Real Book, and I landed on "Nobody Knows You..."

Here is a complete mix as well as the individual bass tracks so you can really hear this bass put through its paces.
