Just purchased and registered this medium-scale bass.  Any history or info on the build card would be appreciated.  Glad to have an Alembic again!

Congratulations and welcome aboard, brother! I own 78-1180 so we are next of Kin. Yours is a beautiful example. Enjoy!

Nick, I saw you're from Cincinnati - one of my favorite towns.  Played gigs with a couple of guitarists up there years ago and the guys at the Bass Cellar are longtime friends.
