I know they've installed a bunch on guitars so I bet there might be a couple basses out there with them...and it seems like a reasonable request for a custom.
Here's Stanley's "Black Beauty" with a bigsby:

Alembic did that for Stanley back in the 70's, that is from Mica herself as I asked her about that when I visited the mothership in 2000.
You can hear him use it on the title track of that album pictured.

I think that would be the only way an alembic could get better, thanks for the pics, I am definetly going to have to get one whenever I get a custom, or buy an alembic
