SJ is the Stanley Clarke Standard, MJ the Mark King Standard.  SC & MK are their respective Signature Deluxe models.

Yesterday, I was playing with my band and my gear:
Alembic F1-X, Yamaha P 5000 S, 31 band EQ, lexicon MX 200, Behringer splitter, the sound was incredible, very clear, like cristal (It's difficult to say in english), this bass sound best than my SC, I don't know really why ... because lenght of scale, electronic is the same, strings are the same...
It sound exactly like Clarkee in his duo with Armand Sabal-Lecco at North Sea jazz 2004... EXACTLY!!! (you can hear on Youtube.com)

You certainly know how to use a camera to show those basses off beautifully.
 
A lovely collection you have there.

Well let me put it this way, It looks like you are starting a collection. :-)
 
I hope you get some more money to get more Alembics. Is there such a thing as having too many alembics??
 
Do you have other basses or are you exclusively Alembic now?

Actually I have only my 2 Alembic. In the past, I have had.....a lot ... but I musted sell one to buy another... from 1977 (?):
Rickenbacker 4001, Fender precision, jazz, Ibanez, Kramer, Steinberger, BC rich, series I (3), Distillate, Music man sting ray and some others I don't remember now ...
If I buy another Alembic, my wife will leave our home ... maybe it's best like that, she hate jazz, jazz rock... LOL. Sometimes not lol...
