Roscoe Club

[JOME77]

Watching the Rose Parade, maybe... I used to do that. Turn off the insipid live commentary, put on 'Bitches' Brew' LOUD and drink mimosas...
This year the Philadelphia Mummers' Parade has been postposed until tomorrow due to rain, so I won't be watching that today.
I still have the same 3 Roscoes I have posted before ( 5-, 6-, 7- ) so there's not much point posting them again. They do everything I need so I have no plans for anything new.

Oh we don’t mind seeing them again!

Not posting the same things over and over? TB would only have 2 threads then

I’m at my in-laws (also in rainy PA, Lansdale to be exact), solving multiple crises with google (how long to cook a ham, how far a drive to the airport, etc. ) so no fresh pics of my two Roscoes. Hopefully they’ll get some playing time this year.

Happy New Years to all- may this be the “best sounding, best playing” year ever

Not a bad combination!

Not a bad combination!

Puts you in just the right frame of mind for the following Mummers' Parade !
(Usually. Not this year, due to rain postponement.)

Looking forward to trying a new bass for the new year

Happy, healthy, and safe 2022, Roscoe heads (and headlesses) !

Speaking of pics and the new year....here's a request to spice things up. Anyone have pics of Roscoes with three-piece tops or 3-piece bodies? Rare, I know...but stares 'em if you gots 'em.

And the king screamed …. “Off with his head!”

Beautiful bass Fritz! Love the Maple board with that Cocobolo top!
Please let us know how she sounds.

 

[staccatogrowl]

Thanks, Joe. The top does resemble Cocobolo. It's actually Bees Wing Bubinga. Will definitely let you know how it sounds and plays. .

 

[Nightman]

Interesting character in the wood at the neck pup, too!

So...can a brother hang out with y'all? Whole lotta love for my SKB Standard.

I didn’t use my Roscoe’s on my NYE gig last night but I did use the Kahn DI that Shane turned me onto in this forum. So my TB Roscoe club influence was still with me last night.

Yin/yang: I played a Roscoe on NYE, no gig, no Kahn. TB is where I found my first Roscoe. Here's to each of you in 2022!

Getting some song ideas recorded so I don't lose them. I'm still amazed at how easy it is to record songs today as opposed to 20 years ago.
