Thanks David,
I love this top wood , I think is Koa and the grain pops out when is hit by the light, it's almost tridimensional !

Giampiero,  another welcome here, now that you have an Alembic your other basses will get dusty.  :D

Be patient with hearing back about the build information off of the serial number... it can take sometime.

Thank you so much,
Actually seems that bass didn't travel so much, I live near Milano where the bass was originally shipped  :)

Thank you again for the precious information
