Can you verify that this is an authentic Alembic on ebay?

Looks like a Series II with a smooth bottom.

85 3564 has a very abbreviated file: all it states is black with chrome, so it sure looks like at least that much matches the seller's description and pictures.

Cool bass. Of course, most instruments from 1985 will require calibration at the factory to be brought up to the current specs.

Keith, that bass caught my eye too. I have been trying to find the song that the seller says he used it on, but I am having no luck.
