It is mine now. Thanks Gerard for your honest and fair dealings. It has found a good home.
We've found that the original electronics have been altered. So it is on it's way back to Alembic to have the electronics restored to original.  
Does anyone have an older non-rack mount power supply they may be willing to part with?

Alembic has been planning a run of the old-style non-rack power supplies; you may want to check with Mica on that.

Congrats Earl,
 What was the electronics alteration?
....looking forward to see pics of K-O in its new home after some nurturing at the mothership.
 
cheers,
Kris

Oh dear... Maybe this guitar ate another guitar and it just hasn't digested all the parts yet.  So what does the blue and pink indicate?

I resized it several times.  The pink says something about engineering electrical tape that is not our handiwork.  Can't make out the text for the blue at all, but looks to me like the hum canceler has been taken out of the circuit.

- Blue shows no hum canceler connected
 
-Pink shows some concerning electrical tap that is not Alembic work.
 
-Green marks things that are not original to the instrument.

Gerard made this pic for Mica last week, I think those are her comments. I reduced the size of the pic so it would upload.
It's on it way up to Alembic, and my hope is we can restore it to stock.
