Man Greg!
WOW! 
Greg,
Once again you have got some KILLER Roscoe's!
That wenge neck is just Gorgeous! I'm betting that one sounds so PHAT!
I'm not sure what it is but I haven't been totally sold on the look of the recessed knobs yet.  Quote:

|  | Registered User | | | | Wow, what a beautiful bass. LOVE the look of that one, and the price is amazing.
I really dig the 'ash/wenge' thing with Barts.... big and round, but nice upper treble also. I bet that sounds great for those looking for that modern, warm Bart tone with a bit more aggressive top end.
Not my thing personally, but oh boy, that is the prettiest Roscoe I've seen IMO, and that spec is really cool.
Someone is going to get a deal  |

There are a bunch of really nice looking/spec'ed Roscoes available right now. Hard for me not to buy way more bass than I need. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
