Craig,If the issue is neck depth (front of fingerboard to back of neck), could you ask Alembic if they could shave it down reducing depth and refinish with satin? I got to check out one of Phil’s current basses when I visited a couple of years ago and the neck depth on his is incredibly thin. Another option may be a Spoiler/Persuader, the one I had from the late 80s had a very thin neck.Lastly, I think you have a Starfire, which have pretty thin necks. Maybe upgrade your Starfire with Anniversary electronics and AXY/Fatboy pickups.Hope it all works out and you can find an Alembic or Alembicized option that works for you!
Fantastic! I hope it goes to a home where the hands and fingers match the neck well.
