It is a cool bass. I don't usually like the Scorpion carving but for some reason on this bass it works for me. It would be nice if there was a picture of the whole thing or at least one showing the entire headstock.

There are photos of the whole bass and headstock.  You did not take the time to look at the individual photos on Reverb.  For some strange reason, Reverb photos when not the prime photo you are clicked on, show as partial.

I did try to look at the individual photos, never noticed the partial display thing on Reverb before when clicking only on the thumbnails. Thanks for the tip, looking again the photos are all really nicely shot and framed.

Wow - that is really cool - looks like a decent price too. The knobby headstock fits perfectly! Someone grab this!

I love this bass. It was discussed recently here - http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=22758.0
If I didn't literally JUST buy a Hamer Blitz (Explorer), I'd be tempted to make an offer.

I saw that one ! Nice .

[Spoiler Alert]

I was going to post the listing here and someone beat me to it!
What a treasure! I love the Scorpion cut on the Styx bass player's axe and love this bass too.
For me, It's like that gal you always wanted, but, the timing just isn't right.
