That's a very nice bee's wing Bubinga, not Coco Bolo!

Here is a previous thread (http://alembic.com/club/messages/395/50308.html) from the seller's previous listing (http://cgi.ebay.com/Alembic-Series-1-Bass-1980-cocobolo-mahogany-case-pwr_W0QQitemZ220219570892QQihZ012QQcategoryZ64402QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).  He's added some pictures this time, and lowered the price.

Hi Daniel, welcome to the board.  I see you posted a serial number request, but unfortunately the small staff at the shop have not been able to set aside time to run card searches recently.  Mica posted in the thread I linked above that she thinks it's Bubinga; and I tend to go with her judgment.  Hope that's helpful.
