Wow. That is beautiful! I confess to really liking the one in the middle, though. Congrats!

Thanks! The guitar (2140) is mahogany w/ a myrtle top (I think) and EMG's (81/81 I think). The SKB (5699) is pretty straight ahead- ash, maple board and standard bart/bart. The LG (3826) is mahogany/maple w/ a rosewood board and the standard bart/bart.

Not the most exciting specs but I sure love them.

Wow, love the instruments and love the pic. Like Jerry, I too "zero'd in on the Ash 6er. Don't think I have ever seen a SKB like that. My Century Standard Black Onyx is like the little brother to your SKB!





Your SKB in this photo looks like a bass Batman would play!



Note: They seem very well behaved in this photo, which is a good thing.

Nice basses!

How come the one off to the left has such skinny strings? Do they have to make 'em like that because of the short scale?

Thumbs up

Awesome looking Guitar! That is a crazy sick top!

I think that Gibson makes a copy of that one. Certainly not as pretty as the Roscoe though!

If Gibson ever built a Les Paul with that type of quality it would have had to been around 1958 and that was 4 years before I was born.
