Roscoe pictures (from Roscoe Forum)

:eek:

:hyper:

:bassist:

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this needs an entire thread complete with the appropriate off topic bantar and sound clips.

Congrats Joe!

:D

God Bless, Ray

What does a pseudo-guitar/banjo have to do with our bass guitars?

:confused:

How do you like the SIT strings Greg hooked ya up with?

Gotta try to change topic from the latest round of horror.

:D

God Bless, Ray

Wow! I was so busy finding the "X" at the upper RH corner (after seeing the previous posts) that I missed this one!:D

The SIT strings feel and sound great Ray! Very close to my beloved Roscoe D'Addario's. I just can't stop smiling about the set-up of the bass! :):):)
 
Now that's what I'm talking about! :bassist:

:) I feel so much better now! :D

Hey Nostatic! Did you pick that one up? Great looking Roscoe and what a great deal!

Yeah, showed up today. I got it to tide me over until my Century is finished. I just need to get some Sunbeams to put on it...flats are for my Rob Allens.

fwiw, I really liked the SITs that were on the LG. If my local store had them I'd pick up a set to put on this one.
 
...the neck is cut to shape, will be radiused & slotted today, "hogged" tomorrow...the body blank was cut out of the billet yesterday, it's sitting for the rest of the week to settle, will be cut to shape beginning of next week, and goes into the "shape" queue immediately after.

Soon. :)
:cool:
Music to my ears.
May the time pass quickly?:D
 
I was pretty sure I could not love this bass more, until I put Barts in it (thanks Gard!). Simply a dream come true!
If your bass turns out anything like mine, you will be super happy!!!

:cool:
Thanks BM.
I've lusted for my first Roscoe for over three years.
I say first, becuse after my fretless.
How can you not have a fretted.
I got Roscoe fever. JOY !!!!!

Standard length SIT strings will not work on a Roscoe. They're too short. If you want to grab a set of those you'll have to call the dude you bought the LG from.:smug: He buys special order sets that will fit Roscoes scale length.;)

Just an FYI;)

:D
