Too cool might just be the understatement of the year.

Wow.

Wow, that's really something! Thanks for sharing it. I wish there were more pictures -especially of the neck, and close-ups of the dragon.

That is a cool bass! The pickups are moveable on brass tubes. By the way, the serial number on that one is 999.

Holy crap - that is one of the coolest Alembics ever. A 5-string back in '78 - that was pretty unusual for the time. Wow!

I'd like to find out more about that moveable pickup system. Thats the most elegant solution I've ever seen. On other kinds of basses (Westone Rail, Spalt etc.), its looked like a dog's breakfast.

crazykiwi..that's the dog's bollocks!!
Outstanding bass..must weigh a bit though..big slabs of ebony
That 5 string must have been based on Jimmy Johnsons model as he was the first to own one
