Well...I got a pair of Cocobolo topped five string fretless basses with BEM Diamondwood boards, and a really nice CS4 with Quilted Maple top and Pau Ferro board.

Very light too, the CS4 is 7lb 8oz!!

"Very light too, the CS4 is 7lb 8oz!! - Mark" (poptart)
-------------------------------------------------------------

- This is one of many of the great reasons to buy Roscoe - lightweight. I think the weight factor is huge to us players who gig out a lot. Muy importante!

The look of that bass is stunning. Love everything about it with one exception, it's missing a string.. Shut my mouth, did I just say that????

That suckers so cool I'm gonna ogle it in both threads And Steve, it's got plenty o' strings! (one too many for some). BUT Its awesomeness supercedes its string count.



God Bless, Ray
