...but y'all will probably be disappointed, because I don't have any "fancy" stuff at all!
First up, the oldest in my collection, a Century Signature 6 Swamp Ash body, Natural Satin finish, Wenge/Maple/Wenge wedge neck with a Brazilian (we used to call it African mistakenly) Tulipwood fingerboard, Nordstrand Fat Stack pickups in Tulipwood & Wenge covers, Aguilar OBP-3 preamp, Black hardware...and excuse the whacked alternating neon orange and lime green DR strings, I was feeling...goofy...one day...

Who's next?
My oh my....do you have great taste! Swam[p ash is my favorite and Natural and Translucent White are my favorite finishes. That is very inspiring.
I've posted some before in this thread, but I'll always take the opportunity to post pics of my amazing basses.
Here's my 1st "custom ordered" Roscoe with the man himself. I don' think many people have a pic like this
And with the musician that inspires me and tried to teach me for a couple hours
And here is my 2nd "custom ordered" bass from Roscoe
There have been a few others through the door, but these are the current stable.
Wow Keith and Jimmy.... how cool is that! Nice basses too lol!
4 Roscoes here - 4,5,6 fretted and my 4 fretless. Most of you folk have seen these before but ...
better shot of the FL4:
and, maybe my favorite, tho' my playing still doesn't do it justice:
Loves me some birdseye:
Wow......just wow! I must have an LG!
This was at Gard 's house, so I guess he was actually standing in Gard's driveway.
Gard is a fantastic host! I greatly enjoyed my visit to Greensboro and am looking forward to getting back there soon.I'll even buy lunch and the first round of beers!
The patio @ M'Couls, hm? Nice afternoon that was, we even got Greg to drink a real beer!
