Not great picture quality but you get the idea. It's flame maple with a walnut core and purpleheart lams. Neck is maple and purpleheart with ebony fretboard. Signature electronics.Optima 24 carat gold coated strings are on there now and they rock! Gigged it the first time on Saturday and it was amazing...playability was sublime and the noise outta it is just tremendous! I have a Warwick Buzzard too (I know that's blasphemy to some!) and that stayed on it's stand...and I love that bass, so that shows how bloody good the Alembic is! Enjoy.

You'll find lots of nice Entwhistle fans here, as well as Mark King fans, Stanley Clarke fans, Grateful Dead fans, etc. even an occasional person named Paul. Enjoy that beautiful Exploiter.
