Some Rare Roscoes on the Bay...

Just spotted these on eBay, thought you uys might like a look.

Fist this,
Psychedlic Guitar
A guitar, I assume one of the last ones, as it has the more current headstock, rather than the pointed one I see most of their guitars have.

And then there's this...
Skyskraper
The original(I think), SKB style one, I'm sure René will like this one, seeing that its purple!

'S not purple. More light burgundy or velvet.



But I do like that shape. Now I understand that lumped off lower horn. And with that inline headstock...
Very 80s.


Roscoe should reissue this 80s "vibe".




Bring back 80s speed metal.


no?

He mentions that its more purple than the pics show, but, as is, it looks pretty close to how my purple bass looks under flash.

Yup, their old shapes are pretty sweet, there was this wicked black P/J one on here before, I'd love to nab.

They will do the cutoff horn, but I doubt the old headstocks would ever come back, a shame in a way, they were nice too.
But then, I've been known to love the clichéd 80's glam/metal styles......
