General Manager, Roscoe Guitars | | Join Date: Mar 2000 Location: Greensboro, NC, USA | | A couple details to add:
The solid ash bodies are one piece solid ash.
In the colors, there are 2 of each except the Cherry Sunburst and the Trans Black (there may only be one of the Trans Oranges available as well...right James?  ).
Personal comment time: These guys are lookin' great, and I have a feeling they're going to sound even better, based on the few solid ash basses we've built in the past (all two of 'em ). They're good enough that I've just put my next personal bass in the schedule, and it will be a one piece solid swamp ash body with a satin natural finish as well!
...there will also be a couple "surprise specs" when the basses arrive, sort of a gift for the TPB guys. Nothing extreme, but some "nice touch" things...

We're all really anxious to get those basses over here!
Thanks Gard! |

And that just isn't in the cards right now. I've bought two in the matter of a few months, so my wife would literally kill me if I started working on her for number 3 so soon.

They're DONE!
However, thanks to a shipping snafu with our case supplier's trucking company, they're all just sitting here in the office waiting on cases... 
...we've been promised cases on Tuesday of next week, they'll leave here on the way to TPB the same day, should be "in house" there by Thursday. 
Here's a few shots to hold everyone over....

From the shots, my faves are the amber, natural.....and I am surprised how nice the blue ones came out!! I think I prefer the "natural" headstocks vs. the colored ones..... 
I would love to see the black one!
James, Christmas is coming early for YOU....and some as-of-yet unknown customers.
