This is an unusual one... only the second white Alembic I've seen. Looks like Signature electronics and Double-P pickups. And LED's. Says it's neck-through too.

Looks like a Vector body shape. I like it!

Ditto. Looks like a vector. Really cool - you need a purple fedora with a feather in it for this one!

Don't know what the reserve is but the starting bid is a little over $1K lower than I would put the lowest price for that bass.

Y'know... I'm thinking this bass, or one very much like it, was featured on an Alembic advertisement somewhere. The only other white one I remember is an EVH, that eventually was refinished in natural.
FC, if you're watching... was that something you posted once? I remember a thread somewhere... ::)

A quick search shows previous discussion of a white Europa on SF/craigslist.

Edward: It looks a lot like the 4 string in the '89 catalogue:

And another one, also very similar but with inlays and less electronics:

That top one was what I remembered - close, but not quite it. ;D
Funny, the Persuader 5-string next to the white one on the bottom page looks so much like my bass, except with Double-J's.
