Congratulations on your granddaughter, and congrats on your incoming new bass! You are doubly blessed!

Just before Mary closed the case...  

  The case exterior is very blue, a little deeper than the bass color, but you'd never think it was anything but blue:  

  Enjoy!

Thanks for posting these Mica, I love the case & I REALLY love the bass!! I will comment more after I pick it up on Saturday. I can't believe the journey is finally over & I will soon hold this work of art in my hands! I have enjoyed watching the build come together & seeing raw slats of wood transformed into this pristine beauty by the skill of the amazing people at Alembic. Stay tuned for more to come.....!!

Wow!!!! Merry Christmas and many Happy New Years to follow indeed!

I love the way this bass turned out!

Looks awesome, congrats! (with both newborns that is) :-)
The Jan-Al cases are awesome to, I'm pretty sure you'll be impressed. (just don't get under it or you'll only be pressed) :-)
I know from experience that receiving your Alembic is a very good way to close the year, have fun!

[rustyg61]

Me too Dave!
 
Flip, your Jan-Al case was what inspired me to get one for this bass!

WOW! I suspect the anticipation is going to build even further as it travels closer and closer to you. I tracked EVERY STEP of the way from California to Minnesota when mine was shipped and I suspect you will be closely watching too.  Congratulations and enjoy!

Brian, I'm already following the tracking on UPS! It just left Santa Rosa, I'm guessing heading to the airport. Luckily, I did 2 day shipping so I won't have to wait a week to get it. It will be in Austin on Friday & I will pick it up there on Saturday. That is going to be the longest 3 hour drive of my life!!!
