It's in the catalog and I don't think it's new; I'm familiar with the Tobacco Burst and Amber Burst finishes but I can't think that I've ever seen a Roscoe that was described as Classic Burst in person or on the web.
Thanks! |

Thanks! | Jeff, don't have a photo I can get up quickly now, but will tomorrow. We've done it for quite a while, actually, but not too often - it's just a 2-tone sunburst, while a "tobacco sunburst" is a 3-tone.

I was scouring my photo files yesterday, and failed to find a GOOD shot of that finish...was going to spend a bit of time over the weekend checking in a few other nooks & crannies here on my HD, but you did indeed find an excellent photo!

Here's a pic of a very nice playing sunburst finished Roscoe that I owned for a while. More of a traditional sunburst finish.  |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2001 Location: Niagara Falls, ON, Canada | | | So just confirming, the one Joe posted has a Classic Burst finish, or Tobacco Burst in Roscoe terms? It looks like it has 3 colours to me. I like both 2 and 3 colour bursts, but prefer the more traditional looking ones that have the black limited to just along the edges and seem generally lighter in the middle. |
