Wow, what a great looking Alembic!  That is a specimen, and the flame walnut is absolutely exquisite.  Good luck with its sale.

I like the color variation, tone, and grain of this walnut better than the flame, not that there is anything wrong with it, just that the color jumps out at me more. The wood recipe for the neck really brings the two sides of the top together almost as nicely as if it was bookmatched to center. I like the sound of the maple Alembic necks but sometimes am not as fond of the color contrast since I prefer darker wood tops. Sweet bass.... GLWTS!

No problem, dude, and the framing of the bass in a low angle shot in front of the opened up flight case full of electronics makes it look like the customer is poised to pick up the bass and then actively go searching for the right tone during a soundcheck or on stage.  That's a really cool facet of the pictures in this particular sale of yours! 

I also gotta say, I have not seen many people stage their online sales or auctions like that, and those pics of the brown bass in front of the electronic suite rule, and they make for much less safe window shopping on the part of the average consumer!
