Hey Mica,
2 yrs ago my wife bought an Alembic for me for Christmas. This magnificent bass was purchased from Bass Northwest. It has the body of a Distillate and it is a Short Scale series I. The serial number is 04C13314.
Thank you so much for your help.
Chalie Holmes.

Forgot to add that Bass Northwest bought a new power supply and cord in December of 2007 for the bass.

Hey Mica,
Thank you for answering me!
I know you have been uber-busy! Tom gave me the link to my Distillate, I love this axe! I humbly extend my gratitude, and appreciation to the Alembic family for building such a magnificent bass! I still have to spank it though!(hee hee!)
