No doubt!! And you are dreaming about a Roscoe, so it’s all good....and we understand.
Someday!
In the meantime, keep sending your gorgeous basses
I know Joe has owned that bass you are interested in, but so many have passed through his hands he can’t keep up with them. He has probably forgotten about this one.Someday!

Oh I remember that one!
Right now all my dreams are being satisfied by this one ....
Hard to beat a Roscoe with a Wenge Wedge neck!
That’s a beauty, Joe!!
You know, I think there needs to be a new exclusive club started where the members get to share their basses!!!
Just think about the joy that could be had and the experience to play something special that you don’t have to buy to try!?!

I believe the holly topped limited editions were made for a Colombian store, Bajos Exclusivos. Not only the Century but also LG's and SKB's. They have several video's on their youtube channel.
I know there will be many that probably likes them but the Holly tops don’t do anything for me. Probably my least favorite wood for a bass.
Actually, the last 20 seconds sounded pretty good to me, but I don't know if that was the same bass.
Hey, we are just 8 posts away from 10,000 posts!

I’m sure we can get there with some useless, post building posts.
I'll help the 10,000 posts cause and ask this question: Has anyone tried LaBella 760N-B on a fretless Roscoe? I prefer the feel over the TI Jazz Flats and wanted to go with some flats on my Roscoe, but I'm not wanting to file the nut at all.
I'll check in the morning to see who posted the 10,000 post and won that new Roscoe bass!!

I'm liking Ernie Ball Cobalt Flats (also known as Slinky Flats - look for Cobalt on the label) on my fretless Roscoe. They have sets for 4's and 5's - if you have a 6 you'll need a C from some other set. No nut adjustments...
The D'addario Chrome Flats and Ernie Ball Cobalt Flats (those are on my fretless) sound and feel good and don't require any mods to the nut. I've also used TI Jazz flats and they sit properly in the nut.
Can't say that I remember any strings that didn't sit well in the nut (but I also use lights).
