Roscoe Electric Guitars

[dewi]

Not sure if this topic goes here but here goes.....

Was anybody aware that Roscoe made electric guitars? If so how rare are they to find? I saw a used 80s hair metal Roscoe in a local NC guitar shop. Pretty cool actually.


Thanks,

Dewi

Yeah, they made some pretty sick guitars, still prized amongst shredders, IIRC, shame they stopped making them. This is why the company is named Roscoe Guitars, IIRC.

Most of them, had airbrushed artwork, some of it very uh, adult...

I remember seeing a bunch of pictures of them....I think on Ed Roman's site. A little too 80's looking for me, but I bet they play and sound killer.

EDIT: Hmmm..nothing on the Roman site. It may have actually been the Roscoe site but like 5+ years ago.

There's actually late breaking developments on this.
See this thread in the Roscoe Basses area.

Here she is, got it tonight. A little polish, de-gunking the fret board, new strings and a setup. BAM! The hot-newness! Her name is Bobby Brown.
