I'd like to know more about it. It puts tears in my eyes every time I see it and play it. It's my pride and joy, after years of almost hopelessly wiching for one I finally got my first Alembic, and am already wanting my second one. Thanks a lot in advance, and thanks a lot for such a wonderful piece of craft!

I'm working from the oldest requests to the newest. There's a few more in line ahead of your request, but I am making some good progress.

Ditto, efforts appreciated!, even more considering the amount of precious Alembic instuments over the years! It may be like working on a civil birth registry.. :P
