Where is the thread about the spiffy new Roscoe 6 string piccolo bass??? I know you got it today, because UPS says so (and they're ALWAYS right, right? )

^^ A guy has to setup his photo gear, take the shots and do the post production work, ya'll!! No slack being cut today, eh?!?

Plus, I literally had to rip this out of several guy's hands here in the store today to shoot the photos in the first place... all these geetar players who have secretly been saying "man, I wish Roscoe still made guitars" have finally had their dreams come true.

What do you guys think?!?

Roscoe S-1000 Strat-Style Guitar

If we started cutting you slack, there'd be no end to the slacking around these parts. Just can't have that, no sir, can't have it.

Very cool, I bet the shredders will be delighted, I hear the old Roscoe guitars were prized amongst them.


The super long trem bar is badass too, wish my Kahlers had arm's like that!

Victor just about wore the trem off one of his basses the other night. He was going nuts with it!

I can just about imagine, would love to have heard it(not a huge Wooten fan to be honest though, not that I've listened to too much, but I'll never deny the guy's a genious player and an awesome person)!



I'd love to get one in a Roscoe level instrument someday, definatly too chicken to mod one for it, though!

I thought I felt a disturbance in the force.

Evidently Conan Antonio Motti doesn't care for it, but Greg is taking care of that

It's you. This is not the bass you are searching for...
