Worse than cars, perhaps, which I suppose is fortunate 'cause they're a lot cheaper. And they've all got their own personalities, which is a good thing.
Welcome aboard!

Just came in from the Low End , will shoot new photos later, this belonged to forum member who I think bought about 2 years ago.
Highly figured Cocoblo top
Highly figured Cocobolo back (very unusual to see a Roscoe with a back "cap")
Ash body core
Maple/wenge/maple neck (not the usual maple/purple heart/maple)
Cocobolo fretboard
Multi laminate stacked wood knobs that match the top and body (coco/ash)
Nordstrand pickups with Nordstrand made Cocobolo covers
Audere pre w/ active/passive switch
Two tone gold/black hardware
