Very nice indeed.....
What year did Alembic move the pickup selector from the lower horn to the control cluster area?
I'd love a series but one with the selector in the new location.

Hmmmmm...doesn't look that mint to me.  Particularly the bridge, pickup covers, truss rod cover, bottom of the fingerboard and the 5 pin jack.  I'm sure it sounds good, though.

Don't like how that cat is pawing at the finish... They have claws, and guitars tend to scratch easily. If a cats paw ever came near any of my guitars, I would kick it across the room.

The cat might be de-clawed. If you are the type to kick a cat, then I have a feeling you wouldn't have any!
