Roscoe Club

[Gard]

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).

At the request of the owner of the bass (he doesn't have any good photos), here are photos of "Candy" an OVER-THE-TOP P-only SKB Custom 5P - solid one-piece Exhibition Quilt Maple body, Cordovan finish, 3-piece Maple neck (yes, you can indeed request it for a Custom ), Pale Moon Ebony fingerboard:

Not sure if it's proper (just going to post once, I'll delete if everyone thinks it's not proper) but I am going to leave this here if anyone is interested or knows someone who is.

Just not using this like I thought I would so I'd like to move it along.

That cordovan finish is beautiful - reminds me of Roscoe Red. It really makes that quilt pop. What a beauty.

Just in case some of you guys (and girls) aren't over on FB, I'm going to tempt fate and the CUP to share a bass that we just finished and I absolutely LOVE:

This one slipped under the radar.

Tell your son he may need a job his freshman year.

That board and top are both outrageous .... Wow

Just an update if anyone cares, I flew a few days ago with my Roscoe in a soft shell case and I boarded the plane no problem and put it in the upper cabin storage above my seat on the plane.

but... it had to be the only thing in the compartment.. so nobody else could put their luggage up above... So I don't know how that would work with a crazy full plane and people that are more aggressive..ha.

So, this bass is amazing. Picked it up Friday and had a good hang with Gard. I know it's preachin' to the choir around here, but if you're even half-thinkin' about a Standard or Standard Plus fretless, stop thinkin' and start orderin'!

This applies to all their fretless basses
My Century FL is outstanding. My SKB FL is completely off the charts!

Congrats on a beautiful bass..... The best thing is that they play/ sound even better than they look

I'm getting a Bart MM in mine as well. I had one in a fretted a few years ago but, I haven't heard it with a fretless. So, I'm kind of taking a chance. What do you think?

It sounds incredible! I think it really accentuates the mwah and growl. Between the three-way switch, push/pull mids and bass/treble, you can really shape the tone a lot. I've been playing it mostly unplugged so far and it just sings.
