:D Funky, when I ordered my first Roscoe, I acutally chased the Brown truck around town to get my bass off of it early.

I couldn't even wait for it to get to my door, after the LOOOONG wait of 3 months. LOL

Those were the days.:D

I now have one I'm waiting on, but it should be here in September I'm told.

I feel your pain.:bawl: :( :hyper: :( :confused: :hyper: :mad: :( :bawl: and finally :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :D :D

that about summs up the process for me.

Good luck, and post some pics of your new baby.

Oh, after chasing the truck around all day, I caught up with him three blocks from my house. I'm such an idiot. lol

Roscoe anticipation (Roscoepation I call it) is nearly deadly,

that yearning for progress pics, or some words of reassurance from Gard, and the pain only grows more acute the closer you come to having it in your trembling, sweaty hands.

Please post pics asap, so that we who are still waiting can enjoy a fleeting vicarious thrill.

Try taking a nap. Make sure you don't sleep through the doorbell though. :D Or I'll make myself a really nice hero sandwich. That usually kills about 2 hours.

What a coincidence. Oh well, You can just order another one.

Delivery guys usually wont come until 11- 2ish it will be htere tomorrow im sure.

on another note i was in huntsville today and a ups truck was driving very fast in town and the back door opened and it shot out a rectangular box about 36" long and maybe 15" wide so i went and grabbed it, it weighed quite a bit. i took it home and to my suprise it was a roscoe bass, i am so happy with this bass its plays amazing!!!

Hey funky, did your bass ever arrive? I want to thank you for the favor you did for me yesterday.

Last night, for the first time in months, the last thought that went through my head before I went to sleep, was YOUR bass, not mine.

I hope you got to snuggle up to her last night.
