Nice looking bass. Of all the Roscoe body shapes the Century is my fave.

What do you think of the bridge hanging over the radius of the body?? A small detail to be sure and probably wouldn't affect playability, but just knowing its there would probably annoy me.

Penguin - I think that might be an illusion in one of the pics. In the pic of the whole bass you can see a bit of the top between the edge of the bridge and the edge of the body.
Mark - I like the century body style the best too, I have a century standard plus 5 string coming soon. Here's a peak:

The body does curve away under the bridge, but viewed straight-on, it appears to be on the body.. certainly not a deal-breaker...

bhunt - that's a beautiful looking top! Can't wait to see the end result....

@ Brian - Wow! That's gonna be a gorgeous bass. :) I too can't wait to see the finished result. Not cheap though eh? At over $3k isn't that starting to creep up close to normal Roscoe model price areas?

No not cheap at all but hopefully worth it. They have raised their prices on the regular models also.
