The serial number indicates it's an Orion. Nice upgrades, though not sure it justifies the price. adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 1764 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Saturday, January 19, 2008 - 2:57 am:    It's advertised as a Rogue, but since it's a set-neck it probably is an Orion with the Rogue body shape and electronics. No S/N advertised - it might be numbered as a C (for custom). groovelines Senior Member Username: groovelines Post Number: 520 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Saturday, January 19, 2008 - 10:15 am:    I took "99OW12185" in the URL to be the serial number, "OW" being the Alembic nomenclature for an Orion. Could be wrong. adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 1766 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Saturday, January 19, 2008 - 2:00 pm:    Well spotted! 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 497 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Sunday, January 20, 2008 - 4:04 pm:    I've been looking at this one for months and noticed there was no sustain block and maybe it was built BTC. So now the serial# tells the tale that it is a modified Orion. A bit much since it's not neck-through. I saw a Rogue 6 string at the Atlanta Get Hurt Center for around $3500.00. juggernaught Intermediate Member Username: juggernaught Post Number: 106 Registered: 3-2007 Posted on Sunday, January 20, 2008 - 9:40 pm:    That thing has been up there forever, since I started looking at Alembics nearly a year ago iirc. I'm sure they've been told more than once by now that it's really an Orion.... bassjigga Advanced Member Username: bassjigga Post Number: 292 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Thursday, January 24, 2008 - 1:40 pm:    Yeah I imagine the reason it's been there so long is it is overpriced for a used Orion - even with custom options.
