Roscoe SKB-3006 Order

Here's a special order Roscoe for Chad!

The latest pic shows the shaped body with the black part of the black/gold finish applied. It's cool to see that finish in between the black and the gold steps.

Man, I always really love the look of these before the gold hits.


Black/Silver or Black Star Silver should be a colour option!

+1. This thing looks awesome without the gold. Can't wait to see the finished product.

And here it is before AMD after the gold has been applied - now THAT's cool!!

I dare say it's probably a bit darker in person. It looks like there was quite a bit of flash involved based on the washed out neck pocket in the second photo.

Thanks for the pics, Gard!

That finish...that top...and a wenge board? Chad, you are the MAN! This is going to be one amazingly beautiful instrument, and I've got to think it'll sound even better than it looks. Congratulations to you, and kudos on the specs...very nicely done!

Yeah, sorry, poorly worded request on my end. I thought of the "Rocket Music" colors in the logos (banner above and on Greg's site) and the colors: black, purple, orange, amber on the SKB. It reminded me of the colors in their logo. Perhaps the logo pasted on "on top" of the SKB body?

I'm just taking a break for lunch, maybe the hunger pains are making me loopy (more than usual). Now, back to call backs

Well Done, Bill. So Greg, if you want to market this cool logo / Roscoe marriage and I get royalties, no Bud Light please. I prefer this:



Thanks, Pete
