Roscoe Century-3005 "J" Coming Together!

[Darkstrike]

Yep, nice and smooth...

Oh my..... I may just have to procure an oily Roscoe at some stage in my future.... with J pickups... here's looking at 2011.

I just prefer the gloss finish that they use--both of my current Roscoes have it, and I really like it.

Yup! Roscoe do an utterly fantastic hard gloss.

And I do mean HARD, I've smacked mine off walls, and metal door handles, other basses and whatever.... the only mark I ever left, was on my wall......

I *could* live with the standard Roscoe string spacing. But, my Century 3005 has 20mm spacing at the bridge, and my Century 3006 has 19mm spacing. I am much more comfortable, and prefer, wider-spaced 5's and 6's.

Man, I can't begin to imagine a 20mm 5er..... probably feels somewhat similar to my electric upright!

Go for it!!

If it weren't for me being picky about a couple of specs, I'd have a deposit down on it already.

This one would fit in very nicely with the killer Roscoes you already have!!

 

[baltimore]

Very close to what I have on paper for my next bass,but its close enough, close enough to where Greg made the pick-up changes on King Koa!!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't tell there's going to be a trade envolved with this bass http://www.rocketmusic.net/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&key=2999
If this thing comes back to Blacksburg, there could be trouble for a certain person's marriage........namely me!

 

[RocketMusic]

Ah, yes. King Koa II. That bass was/is badass. I don't imagine Doug will be parting with that one anytime soon. Although there is talk of an MTD 5'er coming in on trade.

 

[baltimore]

LOL!! Till death do we part,with the Roscoes!!! My Roscoe squad have lifetime contracts!!

I blame it all on satan, the one with the purple furry hat!!! Gard

 

[LilRay]

What kind of purple furry hat???? If it ain't genuine Muppet skin', he's a poser. Are we talkin' Brett Farve purple, or Prince purple?

Congrats Doug! Hope you enjoy this one as much as the others.



God Bless, Ray
