 Alembic Spoiler w/ 18V Aguilar OBP1 (http://www.talkbass.com/threads/alembic-spoiler-neck-thru-short-scale-price-drop-18v-aguilar-obp1.1165321/#post-17608621)  
 
Without original electronics, but a great starting price for a project.
 
Not mine, no relationship with seller, outside of replying to his post.

I watched this one on ebay... iirc, according to the auction ending price, he's taking a little hit here.
 
I'm happy to be corrected, but those *look* like the correct AXY's... maybe this one just needs all the innards? I'd love to do the woodwork required. This would be a prime candidate for an East-Meets-West package. (or the infamously troublesome Signature conversion)

Looks like the entire thread has been deleted.
 
I think that's because the last post stated plus PayPal fees which on TalkBass is a sure-fire way to get your for-sale posting deleted.
 
I'll keep an eye out. If anybody wanted to contact the seller directly, his TalkBass handle is slothlane

Yeah, that'll do it. ^^^  
 
I'm guessing it's per usual 32 medium-scale, but that is one of those first-run Spoilers... never *heard* of a true short-scale one, but could be.  
 
Also, though he didn't know the year, with that decal logo, and solid koa body, it should be a 1982.
