| | | | Roscoe Century Standard Plus.
I thought I had my G.A.S. under control. This thing plays so easily, and sounds so killer, I can't put it down. |

| | | | With the Swamp ash body, has that wood-y sound. I solo the bridge pickup most of the time for that Jaco, Berlin, Willis sound. The bridge pickup is a little closer than the Jazz Bass specs, so it really has that Berlin sound.
VERY loud bass. Even louder than my Bongo 4HH which has a massive preamp. Cool Idea that Roscoe has a small hole so you can adjust the trim pot for gain if you want to match the gain to other basses or just to set you're desired signal.
Very easy bass to play. I was worried at first being 35", but I'm now noticing It's easier to play than my 34" Jazz Basses, Smith 5 and Bongo. And VERY light bass as well. |

Maybe this bass will put the clamps back down on the GAS! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
