TheGreek Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 I'm posting some photos of my recently acquired, cocabola fronted Century 3005. These I've shamelessly "relocated" from the Bass Direct website till the weather improves and I get some decent ones done in daylight.

4rchitec7 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Keith Roscoe really does not limit the use of wood, each model is actually a combination designed to create a subtle instrument with a unique sound and look.

BB3000S Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Wow, love the quilt on the one above ^ looks very organic all in all. Not much action here though, surely there must be some new additions across the BC community? Quote

I'll consider it if you offer me list price... but that'd make any man cry! lol Quote
