Hey Flip.. do you think ya might get the hard wood flooring thrown in as case candy???:-)
It is intresting that the neck pup is not as close to the neck as most are. Nice for slap/pop.
How would it sound? What some refer to as tighter maybe?

I only  played this Spoiler (http://muziek.marktplaats.nl/snaarinstrumenten-gitaren-bas/59402616-alembic-spoiler-gereserveerd.html?return=eJwlylsKwjAQheG9FNrHXFFiQhDdyVgDCUnboQlYFffuVN%2F%2Bj3PASvtOVrhqpTK2qwHWMbrYGlrO84JhZhOsuWEBaJXNhf8vDCOet%2BLlcK%2B%2BLb2%2ByF5fS6N4Jdxzo1RCGPUbnqTDUUtzIuUHCUqYbmkkLjXt3wG97NznC6qqLTk%3D&df=1&fta= target=_blank) with similair pickup placement.
Sounds like a... Spoiler  
My '83 and '87 also have slightly different pickup placements, I can't say which placement I prefer... the '83 sounds better, but thats just my opinion and she's build from different materials and has another profile (overall thinner than the '87)
