They say that money can’t buy you happiness but it can you Roscoe Basses…. And that’s sort of the same thing no?
Hey Gary!
You can’t make a post like that without sharing the specs!
Sorry about that. It's just that I've missed having a 6 string to noodle around on. I absolutely adore Keith's 6ers. On a whim, I called and he picked up the phone. I asked him to send me some photos of top woods. I'm just kicking the idea around for now. A 6 string SKB would be nice. And I would get away from Bart electronics, since I have an LG and Century with Barts. Maybe Nordstrand or Mike Pope. Please let me know if you come across a Roscoe 6 string for sale. I know you have connections.
Oh Ray, I've been daydreaming of a Roscoe 6 string lately. It's just a thought in my head now. But it was enough to make me give Keith a call. He's going to send pics of top woods.
I DO think about it at times. I took some good photos of it. That bass is so nice and very rare to boot.I think you are really daydreaming about that fretless 5’er I bought back from you.
A Roscoe 6 is an awesome bass!! Go for it, Gary! Life is too short and very precious to not experience the joys you daydream about.
Off topic, but just had to share. Bought a turntable, Pro-Ject RPM Carbon 3. I have about 300 records to go through. Listening to Joni Mitchell, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter. Jaco makes a splash! What a genius on fretless!
A great music medium! You might not have to put quarters on the stylus arm. 
Old school Ray! Now listening to Jeff Beck, Blow by Blow.A great music medium! You might not have to put quarters on the stylus arm.
Anyone else playing vinyl?

I first discovered Don Juan and the other Joni/Jaco records when I was 19. Those records were an earthquake in my early musical development.
Just an FYI….Our buddy Dave Siff has his amazing headless Roscoe up for sale in the Roscoeheads group on Facebook.
You're my music brother! Funny how we love to play bass too.
Anybody interested in a killer headless? 
It's listed over at the Roscoeheads FB group. Gonna pop it in the Classifieds here soon but wanted the Roscoe family to get first crack.
