One (among many) of the fun things about visiting Alembic is seeing the incredible instruments being crafted which never show up in the FTC or Showcase pages.
2011 Quilted Maple Dragon Wing, Anniversary Electronics
2007 Quilted Cocobolo Custom 5-string Tribute-body Bass ("Scarlet")
2006 Cocobolo SC Deluxe SS
2003 Quilted Maple Series II Europa ("Almost Twins")
1996 Flame Walnut Elan fretless
1994 Flame Maple Classico
1976 Walnut Series I SS

Those racks were pretty full when I was there last year and it looks like they are full of instruments now so it seems Alembic are still attracting buyers. Long may it continue.

There was this band that introduced its members at every gig, and then presented the bass (not the bass player, he had an Alembic Orion 6 strings)
