WTB Alembic 5 - Long or Medium

[juggernaught]

Looking for an Alembic 5 string, either long or medium scale, but medium preferred.  Electronics should be at least Europa, but signature or even series I/II is better.  Purple heart and/or ebony lams a must.  
Here's a breakdown:
Europa/sig electronics: must be ~2003 or younger, will pay 3-4k USD
series: '98 or younger 5-6k USD
 
I would be willing to pay more for buckeye burl, LEDs, or medium scale.  Thanks!

I have a 2005 Europa with signature electronics and buckeye burl I would sell for what I paid for it.($3995) You can see a picture at showcase/Europa/Custom Europa 5 string w/ Buckeye burl. jhalb@charter.net

very tempted, but will have to wait since I just got (or am about to get) a brown bass (today, yay!).  I still would love some pics.  Can you wait a few months?
