Darkstrike's Roscoe Design

Ah, my arch nemesis, I've been doing the opposite, trying to keep it all away from you.....:ninja:

And I'm sure you're succeeding masterfully.:smug:

Actually all the verbal diarrhea I create, is straight up and down like six o'clock.

I'd hate to see what would come outta my mind if it were "pickled":D

God Bless, Ray
 
Darkstrike - Gard made a very good point to me this morning, and this is as much for poptart's (the UK's Roscoe dealer) benefit as yours. I can't sell new Roscoes to Ireland, poptart has that territory as part of his dealer agreement. That said, I'm still going to move ahead with the order, I think this bass will be killer. If it gets to the point that you do want to buy it, poptart and I will just have to work out the details of me selling the bass to him so that he can sell it to you. No biggie, we'll just split the pie however makes sense. Your price would not change, other than whatever fluctations happen beteen the dollar and the pound/euro. Also according to Gard, there would be some VAT advantages for you in doing that, anyway...

Just FYI.

Also, I'm going to try my darndest to turn this into a live order before I leave today. We're going with a 5, is that right?

Completly understandable, and perfectly fair, and sensible, I'll keep it in mind. :)

I think 5 would be best, but I'll leave that detail up to you, and Gard, you two know a lot better when it comes to these things.

FWIW, if I was ordering it for myself, I'd choose 5, but as its for you store, makes more sense for you to choose, and if it comes up that I could buy it, I would, 4 or 5, no problem.
 
Gard shot me a progress pic! :bassist:

A little carving, add a touch of green, throw on a neck... yeah, it ought be ready to ship in a day or two. Right, Gard? Wait - wasn't that a deodorant? :eyebrow:
