I thought it would be cool to have the Blue Steal Tribute and this bass as a pair.

Cool bass.  The reflection on the tailpiece makes it look like the tailpiece has LED's.

Maybe it's a trick of the light, but with that lower horn it doesn't look like one of the standard body shapes.

No, it isn't a standard Alembic shape. It was the prototype for  Autumn's Delight (http://www.alembic.com/info/fc_rod.html).

Intresting, another prototype. Was the prototype a neck-through?

Most likely Essence controls.
