This is incorrect:

This is a Signature Standard with way too high of a starting price.

Anniversary electronics, and 3 extra toggles - could be one for leds, and a set of bass and treble quick change tone switches.

Interestingly, the build card suggests signature electronics (pan) with the addition of the bass and treble boost/cut switches.  But the pictures do show a pickup selector switch.
 
I'm guessing that the Keith who played with Fiona Apple mentioned in the listing is Keith Lowe.
 
Here (http://a1.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/12/05050b63b68d6c7b8708fa875ed18e6c/l.jpg) is a picture of Keith Lowe on stage; and behind him on a stand is a Quilted Maple SC.  Not the one in the listing, which the listing says the owner got direct from Alembic, but one that does appear to have extra switches.
