Erik,  
I have to say, you have some of the coolest Alembics I have seen. Congratulations!

King of the Castle, King of the Castle, King of the Castle  
 
I have been waiting for this one to be finished, and it totally exceeded my expectations, I cannot imagine what Erik must have thought.  Congrats dude, you inspire me to use Spalted Maple for my custom axe, when I have enough nickles in my jeans!
The only thing that stays the same is change.

Erik:
 
I don't like it.
 
I LOVE it!
 
Does this one have the synth pickup also?  Which synth do you use?  (I have a Roland GR-33)
 
Congrats.
 
Bill, tgo

Bill,
 
That 5-pin is the side mounted series connector,  not MIDI.
 
Wishing I'd known that was an option.  Very pretty.

Bradley:
 
That I figured out.  If you check out Erik's previous Tribute COTM, he got a very cool wood framed 13 pin synth jack installed on the side too.

Great addition and wonderful choice on the top!
simply stunning. At first the spalted maple did
not flip my switch, but after seing some of the  
magic Alembic can produce I'm really likin' it.
Congrats Erik and enjoy!
