Roscoe does about as nice a Buckeye Burl top as anybody, and I just reserved a KILLER piece for my store. Please let me know if this piece starts giving you some serious GAS, I'd be happy to quote a custom Roscoe build for anyone!!
Part of the art of working with Buckeye Burl is filling all the voids so that they disappear or at least look like they belong. Roscoe does a really great job with this. Sometimes the filled voids end up being every bit as cool as the wood itself!! .jpg)

Owner, Rocket Music | | Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Blacksburg, VA | | | I'm gonna let you off the hook on this one, Ryan. Really cool Buckeye Burl is more common than the really cool Koa. If this piece goes, there's another cool piece right behind it. Don't freak out about missing this one.
Man, I'm a HORRIBLE sales person, aren't I?!? |

....and kudos for it.

Considering the two instruments I'm currently playing, I'm confident that when we do order/build my fretless Century, it'll be nothing short of amazing.

Now there's the geeky Bumpster that I know and love. The most sad part is that to me, this was the most intelligible comment in the thread.
