Very recently I could add to my collection, a bass which was on my wishlist a long time. I knew the Scroll guitar series from Epiphone (Prince played one) and knew that they made just ONE bass within it: The Double Scroll. It took me about a half year to find it somewere in the world. Finaly succeeded in Texas. The axe is from 1976, in superb condition and original.
It's got two splitcoil humbuckers and a toil cap switch.
They are so rarely seen, I was wandering if someone could come up with some more information. There's very little on the internet.
The only serious info is this: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewPicture&friendID=190270840&albumId=130452
