It's listed as 92K7353, but the only proof of that is a close up photo of a piece of scrapwood with the serial written in ink. http://cgi.ebay.com/Alembic-Bass-Guitar-USA-Made-Beautiful-Must-See_W0QQitemZ370166257958QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item370166257958&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14_trkparms=72%3A570|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50 adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 2124 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Tuesday, March 03, 2009 - 6:20 am:    The serial number does not appear on the Stolen Instruments list or the News and Announcements page. It may be hand-written in the control cavity. keith_h Senior Member Username: keith_h Post Number: 1233 Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Tuesday, March 03, 2009 - 8:27 am:    That bass has already been covered here and here.
