Sweet looking Orion. Looks like a maple top on a possible mahogany back. Maple neck with 2 thin walnut veneers. These are still made, and there should be plenty of info on the main alembic site.
Welcome to the forum! Make sure to post some larger pictures in the showcase section.

Welcome to the forum Timmy, Orion's are terrific basses, I have one too and love it! The sound and feel is fantastic and they balance so well, truly a great bass. If you want specific information about your bass, post a picture & serial number in the 'Owning an Alembic' section and Mica will research its history for you but please be patient, this is something she does as time allows and you will learn as a member of this forum, that she is plenty busy! Welcome again, play your Orion in good health.

From what I can see that looks like you have Volume, pick up pan and Low Pass filter for the electronics in that bass which is usually found in the Essence bass. Usually Orions come with Vol, pan, bass & treble.
