Wow!  What a nice pair!

Great minds think alike Mike! My fretless custom is going to have the same idea for side position markers - except without LEDs. It will be side dots on the fret position at 1,3,5,7... 12 etc. with sidelines on the rest (i.e. 2, 4, 6...).

To 8SK and batssjigg, thanks for your comments guys.  I cant tell you how much I am looking forward to getting these basses.  I have had to sell alomost all of my other basses to pay for them but I am sure it will be more than worth it.  
Peace
Mike

Very nice Mike, very nice indeed.
 
That walnut is awesome.
 
Have you ever played a Series or Signature bass before?

Hi Oliver, have a look at COM Custom in Stages.  This is my first Alembic and was the moment that I decided to go shortscale in a big way.  My personal view is that Alembic are the very best of the best in custom bass builders.  Everytime I play my bass it makes me smile from ear to ear.
Peace
Mike

Right now Scott's Quilted Coco Bolo bass is getting the calibration, but next in line are your basses. Here's the Walnut one awaiting the treatment:

The tape holds the humcanceller in place until it passes all the tests.
