Looks like an 80s Steinberger inspired PJ  bass that someone put an Alembic P pickup in.

This one has popped up before and the seller was informed it is not an Alembic. Don't know if this is the same seller or not. If I can find the other thread I'll add a link. I think we even had a couple of likely manufacturers of the bass but could be wrong.

I think it was advertised as "Alembic Sick Bass" , or maybe it was "stick"  ::)

Mica, this listing on ebay reads "Alembic Bass guitar".


I'm guessing using we'd rather see  "Bass with Alembic electronics" or something more accurate?

The auction ends soon, but I thought I'd be persnickety  :D

I'm not even sure it has Alembic electronics and isn't just a pickup.
