Yup, busy week last week, got some new tops processed, some of them were graded out for Standard Plus tops, and here we go -
First, a pair of really killer quilted maple with mineral streaking - these will do either Century or LG bodies, sorry SKB dudes:
EDIT: ...and just a moment later, on the left, going to the UK as well.

Chilean Laurel Burl - two of 'em, will work with all three shapes:
EDIT: The cool stuff don't last long - on your left, going to the UK, on the right, going to VA.

OK. Turn this picture 90 degrees counter clockwise, and you can see a bat hanging with its wings wrapped around its body.
Very cool. This bass must be named "The Batman Roscoe!" |

That's some unique stuff, very very cool!
God Bless, Ray

God Bless, Ray | It's an available wood, we don't get it often as good quality stuff is not easy to come by. We do have a couple of "carved" top pieces available, one is reserved already, the other is still open...
