haha thanks.

Yes, I decided I will be taking my Roscoe on the plane with me in a skinny tight small soft case and then I will be wearing it upside down (only for boarding the plane) behind my backpack I'll also be wearing..

ha.. That way they won't even see the headstock, as it will be pointing down towards the floor and under my backpack too!

I'm only going to wear it upside-down for the 10 minutes I board the plane so There won't be any major stress on the neck etc..

Thank you for the print-outs! I had heard of that but Never did print it out..

I'm also bringing a better soft-shell case that I'll probably check under the plane though for when I arrive to switch.. but I have this skinny bag here I'll use to board and fit in the plane!

See how skinny the case is.

I flew from Cork (Ireland) to London and back in the same day last Monday to do a trade on a bass and I just carried my bass in its gigbag in my hand and no-one said anything to me or asked any questions. I saw a tip from someone before and they recommended to carry it in your hand by your side when approaching the check-in desk etc as it will appear smaller and won't raise any questions.

Should be done next week!

Looking good Dave! Shouldn't be long now!!!

We'll have to schedule that mid-year GTG soon so we can see that one in person!

Nice, Dave. What preamp did you go with? I'm going the MM5 route, myself, and am on paper for the Bart.

 

[AudioDwebe]

Really like the rich colors.

I went with the standard Bart NTMB, which I have in my fretted Century Standard. I'm no expert on preamps but I like that one.

I have had that in every Roscoe. Actually, every bass that I've liked (Roscoe, Lakland, Modulus, modded) has had that preamp and Bart pups. Love the combo.

Wow! Beautiful.

Want to reduce weight from your Roscoe? Swapped out the knobs for lightweight wood and installed Ultralites.



Bass now weighs 8.27 lbs.

If anyone has a P-only Roscoe, can you please PM me? I've got a couple questions. Gard believes that Roscoe has built 3 P-only basses (2 fully passive).

Right here

Speakin' of which: when is your next GSO layover?

 

[JoelFT]

Speakin' of which: when is your next GSO layover?

Yeah, that. Being that there are 611 MD-88 captains in Atlanta and I'm number 611 that would be a big ol' who knows. I guess it's going to be when someone calls in sick for a GSO layover.

Well, here's to the day that there is either a 612 or you bounce up to 610 in seniority, and get that layover, Captain.

It hurts me to do this, but I'm looking to part with #6253. If you're looking for a great-playing, great-sounding Roscoe, I've got something you might be interested in - For Sale - Roscoe SKB-3005 Cocobolo, Wenge Sapwood, Ash
