Check out this auction on EBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2531200715&category=4713
Look at the picture of the headstock. What is going on there? Does that look like an Alembic logo, or is it just me?

Looks as if someone did a fairly good job of painting one on.

I would also like to add that the bottom of that bass looks like a butt.

At second glance, and the aid of "supesize picture", it looks as if the logo was cut from a promo or poster and shellacked on. The bass still looks like a butt, though ;)

I guess you need two of these basses for rowing.
Amazing that people are offering these things for selling. I would be too ashamed to ask money for something like this. I heard they are doing great in a fireplace.

That's definitely one "Butt Ugly" bass.....

Yuk!

Throw that thing in the fireplace and hold your nose!

They could have at least put the A sting in the slot in the nut. Strange.

A deformed butt.

Kind of Frankensteinish, isn't it. I wonder what it used to be??
