Alembic Series II 1977 - Zebrawood matte (Reverb)

Lots of pictures - it looks like new! I'm not making sense of the pictures showing the serial number on the end of the headstock, though. Looks like "7" on one side, "238" on the other?

I'll guess a refinished/refurbished 1975 Series I. (I happen to know 75-240 is a zebrawood twin...)

edit:
The bass is in fact from 1975 as confirmed by the embossed serial number on the backside of the brass control cavity plate.

I would like to see it!    When I click on the link, it brings me to a listing for a Persuader.    I searched the site, no luck.

Here is a screen shot of it that I took when it was still live.  I think it had a round disc battery cover if I recall correctly.
