Nice bass!!  The grain on the top wood is very nice.  The main body, the back, is indeed Mahogany.  The top with the nice grain, as Mica mentioned in your serial number thread (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=5992), is Wenge.  Enjoy!

Its now for sale here in Norway, due to my lack of time to play on it. I hope it will be treasured and cared for.

I usually don't care much about the Orion bodyshape, but you got a tremendously beatiful bass. Gorgeous graining on that Wood Top, congratulations!
