That's the best way I've heard to avoid GAS (Gear Aquisition Syndrome) arguments - you each got a new Alembic. Congratulations! They're both beautiful instruments. Have you folks taken them out to play yet?

what kind of wood is the body of the walnut essense?- the wood is so red in the picture it looks like vermillion/paduk. That is one of the nicest looking essence basses I have ever seen-very nice!!

Thanks!  The body is the regular Mahogany.  I guess I just got lucky with the shade.
