Ahh that one roscoe I regret selling!!

 

[Nightman]

I know you do!! It's one of my favorites. When I really need to stand out, I take that bass. It gets lots of compliments!

It's a keeper. Unless a really nice Sadowsky comes along. . IJS

Sadowsky, Roscoe, MTD and Rob Allen - you're clearly a man of refined taste.

Thanks, but I could not have done it without Talkbass forums!!!

Enablers, every last one of them... .

- I can use that. The Talkbass Forum made me do it, yes, that's right!!

I own a Metro RV5 and I've played 5 other Metro's and an NYC.

They ranged from hated it through to good. Fortunately my Metro is the best of the lot, by a long way.

I take from this that I'm not a good candidate for a custom bass. I wouldn't risk waiting a year and then hating the bass when it arrived.

I am the first to agree that it is difficult to predict how one will bond to a particular instrument. That is why we have always had a 7 day approval period for our instruments.

Roger, I'm on Evaluation Day 215, and I can guarantee you're not getting it back... .

 

[Nightman]

Now a 30 or even 90 day evaluation period would be ideal!!! IJS

I've never exercised that right. I knew in one hour both my Standard 4's weren't going anywhere.

Beauty.
Perfect "band width" on the burst.

I've been waiting for almost 1 year, but (as always), it'll be worth it... Got these pictures a few months ago. I'm stoked, but the last days / weeks are really the hardest. I asked for neck pics a few times (I'm dying for more pics - I love those production shots - poor Peter), and while there's a little delay 'cause they had to redo my neck (I spec'ed a rosewood one, and they can't ship that outside the US anymore as you all know), I think it shouldn't be long anymore.

I have seen this body in person and the finish is stunning.

Very, Very nice!
Don't think I ever seen one with those colors. Has a unique look which is cool.
Don't think I could keep my sanity waiting on a build so I'm working on getting one already built.

 

[Ewo]

Ooh! A work of lutherie art, indeed.

Reminds me of the burst Mike Tobias used on his Norm Stockton model.

 

[kittywithabanjo]

That's an awesome finish!
