Goodness!   The squigglies on that zebrawood are sexy.

Pretty sure that's #75-238... a converted Series I. Nice bass.


*FWIW, Andy's bass was #75-174... it's been restored, somewhat upgraded, and resides with another Club Member here. https://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=8338.0  It was loaned back to Andy for a Dregs tour a couple-few years back.

Saw the Dregs in Milwaukee where Andy had that bass.   8)
