Is that purpleheart? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2003-ALEMBIC-TRIBUTE-GUITAR-COCO-BOLO-MAPLE-PURPLE-HEART-EBONY-HEAVY-CA-USA-/221245019002?pt=Guitar&hash=item33833b137a jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 3522 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Friday, July 05, 2013 - 4:18 am:    The wood looks like ebony to me. I agree the logo is shunning almost luminous in quality.

Almost looks Photoshopped, as if that couldn't possibly have been made by human hands. georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 1082 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Wednesday, July 10, 2013 - 3:14 am:    Love it!!

Here's a thread from a few years back with a bunch of logos, from the earliest, more austere ones to the more recent, gorgeous ones. 5a_quilt_top Intermediate Member Username: 5a_quilt_top Post Number: 151 Registered: 6-2012 Posted on Thursday, July 11, 2013 - 4:35 pm:    It's one of the little Alembic "details" that other makers overlook. These logos are like the jewel in the crown (headstock, in this case) - appropriate signatures for unique works of art. The care that is taken to craft these logos is indicative of the pride and care that goes into every step of the manufacturing process.
