Interesting Roscoe on Ebay.

What's the tone of a Vera fretboard?

Oh well...........Looks like the bass is sold now......

However, vera should sound fairly similar to maple (although IMO finger board contributes little to the sound of a Roscoe due to thickness).

Check this Thread out......This may be the bass and the Thread also discusses vera as a finger board ...

There's that Joe dude yet again...

...and yet again, he's right (you tryin' to steal my gig man?

)

Vera is similar in tone to maple, not quite as dry/snappy, but close.

Better watch out Gard, those Georgia boys are sneaky.

He will take your job and actually make you feel good about it and make you think the idea was yours.
