Ahh...one of my favorite Roscoes. Would you compare the sound to another jazz bass? For instance, how does she sound compared to a Fender V jazz or a Sadowsky?

holy cow, that bass looks amazing !
and with the bartolini [DEL]single coils[/DEL] split coils, i bet it sounds just as good, too. bartolini split coils are my favorite PU configuration.

I'm fairly certain those are split coil humbuckers, not single coils.

i'm sure you're correct, too :-)
just called them single coils because they look like single coil pickups.

I've got a grip on what ash brings to tone, but what does the Wenge fretboard and tone block do? Soundclip would be great!
