The bass on page 11 looks nice!

He owned a bunch of guitars!  And a bunch of other stuff.  I didn't look at the prices, but I'm wondering what the highest listed price is.  I did notice a Tele for $40,000.

Oh yes , the Alembic Bass on page 11 !  
 
   On some of his Les Paul (Low impedance model ?) guitars he has a 3 pin XLR on the upper bout of the guitar___ I wonder why he picked that location on the instrument ?. There are several like that .

That does seem odd.  I guess he just found it easier to plug and unplug looking right down onto the plug rather than a blind side mount location where they're normally found.

That Alembic on page 11 is a Becvar. Plenty of discussion about it here (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=8151).
Still a very nice instrument.
