Very Alembic-like as far as the woodwork, but, IIRC, the electronics were pretty much run-of-the-mill. It seemed like a nice guitar, but the shop owner kept insisting it was an Alembic and wanted in excess of $3000 for it, which I felt was way too much.

That one was more standard shaped. The one above appears to be influenced by Irwin's "Tiger". As such, if would date this one in the 80's, as Tiger debuted in August, '79. Cool looking ax - is it yours? Bill, tgo
