My Future Roscoe

What can I say? I have the same problem Roscoe has: no Rocket Music T-Shirts in sight. I need to get on that one of these years...


Greg, you've got a kick butt logo already w/ the Rocket. Shouldn't be much trouble to just flash single color like white on a solid color shirt. Pick your shirt color (or follow TPB's lead and use black) and get an assortment of M-XXL sizes. Done! Who's local in your town? I'll get this checked off your list. . . :D
 
Yeah, money is always the sticking point. It's not like it's a huge investment, but rent, payroll, utilities, more Roscoes, more Suhrs... shirts are always the first things to get cut from the budget.

One of these months, I'll end up flush with cash. At least, that's what I keep telling my wife...
 
Oh, every bass player in the store (including the Gardfather) has been putting it through it's paces... WOW!!!! I'm bowled over, in love... and I can't say enough great things about Keith, Gard and all the guys at Roscoe... they bent over backwards to get this one done quickly, and it didn't suffer at all as a result. It's an amazing bass, and I'll try to post some pics later this evening.
 
OK - I'm letting my buzz die down before I start posing the bass... soon, my people, soon. Pics within the hour...

In the meantime, all I can say is this is baddest f'ing Jazz bass in the history of the world. I don't know why I'm suprised that this sounds so much like a jazz bass (I asked for jazz pickups in the 60's jazz bass locations after all)... I guess my Warwick sounds so unlike a jazz bass, I figured this would, too. Either way, it's completely badass and I'm itching to gig with it. That can't happen fast enough, as far as I'm concerned.

Pics within the hour...
 
Wow...

It'll be a 3-4 weeks on sound clips for this bass, I'll get some live clips at my next gig.

WOW! :eek:

Say it backwards: :eek:!WOW

How did I miss the fact that it was going to have the Joe Barden JB5 pickups?

Definitely tell (in living color) everything about the sound! :hyper:

That is a very nice looking bass!!! :bassist:
