Nice bass!  I should have waited a little longer...I just bought an Epic and am having it converted to fretless by a master luthier.  Oh well.  Good luck!

Is this still available? And is it just me or is the tailpiece off center?

You should contact Alembic for the tailpiece, because I think you will be a happy man/woman(?) if this piece is right set: that will do a lot with tone.
peace and bass!
