Flax, I visited the mothership tonight to pick up my Series I. Of course I had to check out the Tribute. HOLY MOTHERPLUCKINGSHOOT this is one helluva bass! (and you know how I feel about the Jerry batwings). The THG knobs are absolutely PERFECT! Do I smell a repeat COTM? I think you like.
Bill, tgo |

What an awesome custom design! It's a Tribute, all right -to you and Alembic!!! |

There was a miscomminication about the string spacing. This bass got the regular comfort taper. |
