this one checks most of the boxes for me: nice top, 5 string, unlined 34" board, built in LEDs, smaller-ish body.  stereo output would be nice. so would a case at that price.  kinda like to upgrade my essence 5 fretless since it's my bar-hopper these days.  not sure this is the one to do it.  i don't need another high-end bass with no case.  good luck to all!

I’ve played this bass. It’s 10/10 if you like Alembics!

It seems to me that I saw this bass (who could forget a bass that looks like this) a few years ago when I was looking for a fretless. I was attracted to it because the body shape is similar to my 4-string fretted Signature Deluxe (see below). The price at that time was much lower (i.e., low enough for me to consider making an offer) but alas it was snatched up by someone (probably the current seller) before I could make an offer.
