64 Gibson TBird customized by Alembic in 1976 „Superbird“ ??

[senmen]

Guys,
this bass is currently for sale with a dealer in Germany. 
It is advertised as 64 Gibson TBird which is said to have
been customized around 1976 by Alembic as followed:
- Brass Bridge and Tailpiece
- Addirional original TB pickups
- Electronics (no further explanation on them)
- Custom fingerboard inlay by Larry Robinson
   (Abalone, MoP, Ivory, Rosewood, Sterling
     Silver)
- Headstock is additionally laminated on the back
   to add strength ?!


It is said that the origins owner was a guy named
David Strelz.  The bass was in a Sotheby‘s auction
In 1983 and the ad says that it once had been presented
to JE and Alan Rogan ?!


The bass comes with a newer TBird case and it is said with
full Alembic paperwork of the customization as well as
CITES paperwork. 


What do you think?
Does anyone know this bass?

I would love to see the Alembic paperwork on this. I would also be cautious with export, it does look like ivory in the inlay.

Hi Mica,
great to hear from you. 
Hope all is well. 
Yes, there is indeed ivory on the fingerboard and the seller
says it has full Cites. 
I will ask the seller if he is willing to share the paperwork.
