Harold, I understand... there are so many beautiful Alembics, but I am sure there's one of them  striking your fancy just a little more than the rest...  
 
You can't please everybody anyway... I stop trying a very long time ago, and love myself even more for it!

That black one shown by Keavin has got to be close to the top of my favourite alembics. Although Clarkee's Dragon's breath has to be one bad alembic bass. Here she is with her bad sister,  Dragon Magic.

A friendly message:
 
For those people who are hesitant to post their favorite looking Alembic, I say: send me a private email, and I will post it and not reveal anything but the pictures. I just want people to see all the choice you feel is the BADDEST ALEMBIC.
 
Email me those picture!

Looks like Harold ( post #3 ) has the same dream bass in mind. When I imagine my dream Alembic, I visualize a Series 2 Coco OBS.

Dave has my favorite and I doubt he'll be giving it up any time soon!

Hi serialnumber12 ,
       
                                      The pic on the top of your post #516 that you posted is the inside of my Old GUILD/ALEMBIC  with Pluto filters. I sold that bass around 1979 or so.

If I could have just any Alembic in the showcase section, it would definately be this one:

The neck on Charles' Dragonfly still stops me every time I see it!
