Nice! Really starting to like the look of Curly Redwood and it contrasts especially well with Cocobolo.

The beveled headstock is a nice touch.

Wow! The owner is certainly obsessed with Plerandra elegantissima, isn't he?

Wow.  Just, WOW!  What a piece of art. (Plus it can also be a bass guitar!!)  Congrats to all.
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

I think it was required just to place the order for this one...
 
;-)
 
Seriously, another stunning example of custom craftsmanship. I especially like the headstock logo treatment - the ripple effect is just spectacular.

Just when you thought you've seen everything does not apply to an Alembic product, because just when you thought.....oh, never mind....  
I love this bass, it builds on so many other designs before her...would this be considered a 'Scorpion Triple Omega'?
Correction: there is 'much' money to be made above the fifth fret....
