Roscoe Century Custom 5 String

Roscoe Century 5 Custom – Flame Maple in Purple Gloss

This Roscoe Century 5 Custom was born from a moment of inspiration—while wood-shopping for a customer, I spotted this stunning flame maple top and knew I had to build something around it. The result is a bass that’s visually arresting and sonically punchy, with a uniquely elegant purple gloss finish that absolutely belongs on stage. With Bartolini electronics, a birdseye maple fingerboard, and a lightweight swamp ash body, this bass offers clarity, warmth, and punch in one refined package. It sits right in the tonal sweet spot between the silky smoothness of an F Bass and the articulate growl of an MTD.

Why this bass stands out

• One-of-a-kind flame maple top in rich purple gloss
• Perfect blend of warmth and articulation
• Lightweight swamp ash body for excellent balance and resonance
• Built with the precision and detail Roscoe is known for
