Very pretty Flame Koa there. I'm always a little surprised to see the molded ALEMBIC block letters painted in gold all over the world, considering we never did that here. Looks good though!

Interesting that it's a short-scale too... I've seen a couple long-scale Distillate basses, but I don't remember seeing a short.

Pretty bass.  :)

Looks cool as a short scale. I have one of those rarely seen long scale Distillates.

Looks to be a great bass. Cost almost $4,000 shipped to the states. Too much for me. I was tempted though.
