Roscoe LG5 fretless sounded wonderful today!!!!View attachment 4907032


It's been a year and a month, but my four-string is finally finished! Really looking forward to getting this bass in my hands. Keith said that he was shipping it out today, but I asked for him to hang onto it over Christmas. Traveling from Thursday - Monday, don't want to miss my shipment. I would have to think that you are up next Ed, at least I hope so.
Wow, I was just looking at this pic on their Instagram page. Killer looking bass! Congratulations.

Thank you!Thank you!
Amazing looking CB's in your avatar photo!
I've had LG's with both the slanted PUs and the straight ones. I much prefer the slanted. The slant follows my playing angle perfectly. I love my SKB's but if I had a do-over, I would have nothing but LG's.Thank you!
So I didn’t know that Roscoe still made the model with the slanted pickups like yours.
Those were always my favorites back in the day.

Same for me, I might have to look into ordering one now that I’ve seen yours. It’s been many years since I’ve had one.The slant follows my playing angle perfectly.

Congratulations! That's got to be the coolest looking 4 string Roscoe I've seen. Sometimes the proportions just look a little "off" to me on a 4 since I'm so used to seeing the Roscoe body shapes with the wider 5 or 6 string necks. But this one looks great.
Beautiful bass! Maybe he can ship mine if he's holding yours? I'll be home for Christmas. That sounds like a song.
I know. But he said all that was left was assembly and that was almost 2 weeks ago so...Patience Steve!![]()

.....and we all know what 2-weeks actually means in bass building/modifications, right?![]()
