David, yes, it is indeed in the home stretch, I'm expecting it to get assembled toward the middle of next week, actually! Tony has the neck in the batch he started final shaping yesterday.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Greensboro NC | | | Wow! I stayed up waayy too late last night playing this beauty. The J is a great addition to the Roscoe lineup, IMO. Very versatile, tone-wise, like my other Roscoes. I also am really digging the look of this bass. It looks even better with incandescent light than the pics above. Incandescent light seems to bring out the depth of the flame more than flourescent. The fact that it represents a happy time from my childhood just makes it that much better. A special thanks to Keith and the guys for bringing this idea to fruition. It's everything I hoped it would be, and then some. |

If I sniff the body, it smells like the Roscoe shop-a woody smell I love. But the fingerboard has a strong odor that I don't smell anywhere else on the bass. Maybe I need to put the bass down for a while. I mean, who spends time smelling their bass?  |
