Good luck with the sale/trade! |

| | Seeking to better my collection | | Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Rochester, NY | | | Ok, straight from Keith Roscoe himself:
"This bass has an exhibition quilt maple top with Spanish Cedar body, and antique yellow finish. The neck is a maple with a Cocobolo center lamination, Chechen stringers and maple and cherry accent laminations. The fingerboard is exhibition Cocobolo."
So I guess if I was to add up all the pieces I count 9. I am open to thoughts on my count. |

Bump for a GREAT bass. If you have not tried a Roscoe, you will be amazed. Buy this beauty!

Bass Club Chicago | | | | | That's correct. Ours has a one piece body. Does not have a deluxe top. Thanks! |

Chuck | OK, forgive my ignorance, but what does BUMP mean? I keep seeing people saying that but does it stand for something in particular? Just curious....

So if you post something to someone's thread it goes to the top. That gets a post noticed more. That is why there are rules on self bumping.
Hey, but thanks for the bump! |
