Yep. We had this gold colored Series here once remember? I love it as a stage-bass. It makes part of a visual show. Of course the sound is there too! Alain, about that artic white Europa. I have that old Alembic catalog at home here with that picture. I scanned it once to put as a picture here in a thread ...somewhere ...around ...huhuhuhu ...Hééééééé-élp ...moder Dave ...!!!!!

I think you are talking about this picture:  It's a custom bass, not quite a Europa. Vector body shape, double P pickups, Signature electronics, LEDs, and lovely Arctic White. This bass was stolen from our NAMM show display, and thankfully recovered, though it suffered some dings. | ||

That's my old bass! I built it while I worked at Alembic.It has a Vector body with a super carved heal,L.E.D.'s,signature electronics,and the jack is on the bottom next to the strap button.It is serial number 5000. John | ||

Hey John, good to see you on the club. That bass returned to the mothership last year, when the gentleman who bought it from John decided to visit us; it needed a little TLC to take care of one nasty headstock chip, but it's looking great now. Valentino | ||

Hey Valentino, great seeing you at Mica's Wedding!! How did you like that Flowergirl? Are you sure that was my old bass?I refinished mine in purple before I sold it! John | ||

Hey John, the Flowergirl was just too cute for words; sorry we didn't get to hang out more. As to the bass...Susan & Mica both said :"That's John 's bass." the moment they saw it, and, as I recall, you told me it was yours as well.  Plus I am familiar with what passes for your sense of humor...purple, yeah, right. Valentino | ||

Hi Valentino, I REALLY did refinish it in a candy purple!!! It had gotten stolen at NAMM one year,and I got it back,but it was pretty macked-up,so a few years later a friend of mine refinished it for me! I really wish I still had it,it was a KILLER bass and believe it or not,looked great in purple! John |
