It's a real great looking bass, the coco bolo and the maple have aged beautifully.
I wonder if Alembic ever get asked to build a new bass but have it made to look like it's really old.

It looks to me like all the strings except the skinniest one break at a sideways angle as they pass over the saddles on this bass. Is that normal, or has the bridge been moved, or is it just an optical illusion? Inquiring minds want to know.

Someone centered the tailpiece, that's what you get.  Where is Pierre-Yves?
