Roscoe Club

Well regardless if your preference is flat tops or carved we all agree on one thing, that we all love Roscoe basses!

Merry Christmas eve Roscoeheads!:)

Here's a remixed Christmas tune using all Roscoe basses. It's based on David Crowders version of the "The First Noel" .......

I never noticed the flat vs curved body until now. Sheesh I always thought it was merely a matter of top thickness making it look flatter. Or is that what your talking about ?
Looking at the list of Roscoes in your signature, they are all Customs and have contoured (carved) tops. None of your tops are flat like a Standard or Standard+, so there is really nothing different for you to notice in the Roscoe basses you have listed.

He's got a Roscoe Classic or 2, so those have 'flat' tops, I guess! Merry Christmas Eve, all! I've learned a lot from this forum, and maybe one day when I'm older and wiser, I'll be able to contribute my fair 50% of "commenting on nothing" like the best!

That's way to large of a box to be the 3-way p/u switch and pencil!:jawdrop:

:hyper::hyper::hyper:

What is it? What is it?!? :hyper::bassist::hyper::bassist::hyper:

IKR!! Maybe the 3-way switch is already attached to a circuit!

I'm told the smaller package wasn't part of the placed order!! Maybe it's full of those pencils. I hope they included a sharpener. It doesn't have that Caution label and I might be able to sneak a peek even though I'm reminded that it's a Christmas gift. If I open that package and find a bunch of pencils I'll shove them somewhere where the sun doesn't shine... like in a draw.

Well, we all know it's not a Fender because there would be no weather caution label or fragile warnings for those. They can withstand a direct hit from an 8X12 cabinet!! :laugh: Just kidding, I think.
