Roscoe Basses have the best sounding and responsive B strings of any Bass I've played. I'm not saying there aren't any better out there, but if there are I haven't played any...Yet! This fretless is the most expressive and beautiful sounding bass I have in my collection. I have had songwriters rewrite the Bass parts for their tunes on the spot in the studio when they hear how good this Bass sounds. Keith enjoys making these instruments. It really shows. I've heard that they have a tendency to have cosmetic flaws, but the two that I own are flawless. Keith told me he spent some extra time he had setting this Bass up. I haven't had to touch it! This fingerboard plays like buttah!
