A lovely body shape for a guitar too.

Just like my first impression of the prototype: the body shape is incredibly attractive. I don't think think I've ever seen another bass similar; it makes so much sense both aesthetically and practically.

I notice the reshaping of the neck heel since the prototype - I like it much better now. There's nothing else about this instrument I'd want to see changed.

I will note: the shop needs to pay more attention to the details in the Reverb listing (in the specs section it somehow becomes a 5-string Rogue?!?).

The Crest is one beautiful Ax :D

Same general body shape as the Gretch Super!

Song dog. EVERYTHING Alembic posted on Reverb is listed as a 5-string Rogue.

I love the Crest! Was very fortunate to play the prototype at the mothership. Even though I can't afford it, I was watching this one on Reverb - was given an offer - almost $2000 off! Still not within reach, and actually it sold! But then it reappeared.
