If I hadn't made a recent purchase I would be contacting the shop to haggle a deal. jazzyvee |

Magnificent instrument in one of my favorite body styles. Drool. Whimper. Good thing I am broke or I would be tempted to do something stupid. |

Looks like a subtle "honeyburst" finish over the Burl Maple. I do recall that we've done this before. |

Sans any custom options, this is just what I'd order in an Alembic, right down to the finish. |

I went to this shop last fall. Definitely a good place to stay for bass players ;-)) |
