It had the original tuners as well as a new set of gold gotohs.Mica was very helpful on a new set of electronics for it, dead quiet and sound great !I changed the straplocks to gold.I had located a good bit of fossilized woolly mammoth ivory and requested Roger at THG knobs to make top hats in burl walnut with ebony and ivory ying yang inlays with a clear coat dome caps.Roger does fantastic work! Like mica he is good people.I love this bass, my fist Alembic but not my last,BILLY BASS stoney Advanced Member Username: stoney Post Number: 208 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Friday, August 29, 2003 - 10:07 am:    Very cool, nice lookin' bass. stoney nansh007 New Username: nansh007 Post Number: 1 Registered: 9-2003 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 2:15 am:    pretty senmen Member Username: senmen Post Number: 72 Registered: 7-2003 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 2:23 am:    What really looks great is the wood grain under the tailpiece. It looks like the form of the tailpiece is continued in the wood grain. Great!
