I saw that bass on my factory tour this April. Although it was not complete at that time It looked very impressive.

No arguments here!  I would LOVE to hear what this masterpiece sounds like at some point.

I want to play it.  
 
Enjoy, good sir.  You deserve 6 months off to do nothing but play that bass.  You've waited a lifetime for it.

It should stay the featured custom for at least a year!

Mica, this photo is just perfect with that colourfull painting framing the bass. Nice match...
Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

Inquiring minds want to know. Have you played it yet?

No, we are still hung up on shipping details  
Tomorrow the whole shipping room will be torn up in an attempt to disprove the group hallucination of the case for this bass. We all saw it. Everyone. Then, it vanished. Meanwhile we're getting another one made tout-suite in case the case of the missing case is never solved. Disheartening for all, and especially Austin.

Maybe the case was shipped empty by mistake.

Anyone checked the local funeral parlours? A trip through the pearly gates in a custom-made Alembic box ... Temptation may have just been too great.
