Hi everyone. Finally got my Roscoe! It's my first one, but I intend on buying many more. Specs are; Red finish, Exhibition Quilt Maple top with a Swamp Ash Body. The neck is Maple with a Purpleheart centre lamination and Maple and Cherry accent laminations. The fretboard is Bird' Eye Maple. Bart electronics.
I can't believe how well defined each note is. It's easily the best bass I've owned. It's extremely light too which is a big plus.
I've very, very happy. 
Thanks to George from Bass Gear Direct for this beautiful bass.
More pictures to come! |

My blurry photos do not do this bass justice.
Additional notes: This bass is the easiest bass to play I've ever played. Thank you Keith and Co for making me sound like a better player than I am.  |

Congratulations!
Great looking Roscoe!
Roscoe red on a nice quilt top is one of my favorites too. It really brings out the quilt! |
