Roscoe Club

New guy here!

I thought I would share my favorite bass with the group, figure you guys could appreciate her as much as I do.

I picked up this beautiful (sounding, playing, and looking!) LG-3005 second hand almost 20 years ago while I was in high school. She's been my main ever since. Her neck plays like butter, and her tone is absolutely eye watering.

I'm finally at a point in life where I may be in the market for a fretted sister for her, and I'm really enjoying perusing the last few years of posts and comments on here.

Cheers!

There is a fretted Roscoe PJ in Green at LowEnd Basses that would be a nice match for this beauty!!!
Welcome!
 
Plastic still on it ! Fresh right out of the box I had to show you how light !

I won’t have time to mess with it for a couple days so pics later but right out of the box is an incredible instrument. Very pleasantly surprised. Thank you Roscoe!!!
 
Sniper! ;)

I called him about that bass less than an hour after you walked away with it and he told me he traded it away.

I snoozed, I lost. Enjoy it!

Thanks! Brian told me someone just called. This is my sixth Roscoe and I was dying to try out a Roscoe Classic. This one was calling my name due to the color since I am a UAB Blazer Alumni and my wife just started a job there.

Joe, there is a class starting next month for three days in Atlanta on how to tell jokes. What's your schedule looking like next month? :)

Weeks totally open Ray!
