Keith Roscoe Cigar Humidor 5-string Bass On Ebay.

I'm looking to buy another Roscoe so I was checking eBay and came across this bass. What do you guys think? I think it looks really cool but I don't know about the price, I could probably buy 3 nice used Roscoes for that price but still

What I'd like to know is, did Roscoe actually make humidors at one time, like the guy(a TBer, if you didn't see his thread) thinks they may have.

Good question.. I think we should start an Ask Keith thread in this Forum.

That would make for an awesome sticky thread!

He'd never get any work done though, with all the insane questions!

The Ask Keith Thread now exists. Lets see how long it takes them to delete it outright...

If it were emerald green, you could call it the Red Auerbach Roscoe!




Go Celtics!

Check the Roscoe Pics thread for the story on this bass.(pg. 7 & 8)
The bass belongs to my friend who's father passed away several years ago. She is hoping to sell the bass to help pay off her college tuition.
The price is high, but I have to admit The Humidor bass is awesome!!

Gard thanks for your support last series, but between us gentleman we can both agree that whomever moves on kills the Lakers, right? (Sorry Suns fans, I don't think you have a hope in..) I actually like the Magic right behind the Celtics and wish you the best of luck. Suns fans, I am pulling for you.

Nope, not a shame at all about "Queen" James and the Cavs. Wonder where Queenie will be next year.

As for the series, a well-rested, and very powerful Magic team will be too much for the Celtics, sorry. There is a reason they have swept both series so far - they're the best in the east for sure, and IMO the best in the NBA right now...the question is when they get to the finals will the calls on Kobe and Howard be fair and even, or will they "lean" in Kobe's favor AGAIN? (Man travels everytime he touches a ball ).

However, IF I am mistaken, and the Celtics make the finals, they will indeed have my full support:

ANYONE BUT THE FAKERS!

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa!!!

The Lakers aint Western conference champs yet.

FWIW, IF the Magic get past Boston, they'd better hope the Lakers come out on top in the west. Phoenix matches up better with them than L.A.

OK. I live two hours from Orlando. That's close enough to be a fair weather fan.

Go Magic!
