Joy of joys! The newest case came today, and... it fits great!  Even around the straplocks:

   Here's the little hand access area marked in green:

   And in use:

   The peghead clears the edges and is completely "floating" in the well:

   Body fit:

   Nice accessories compartment with a good latch. You can see the hand access are a little better here:

  Valentino will be back on Monday, and we'll inspect it closely along with Mary's eagle eye. I will call you when it's all packed up to make the final shipping arrangements.

I don't know if I'd call Rami's bass the ultimate custom bass just yet - mine's being built! :-)
 
Just kidding - congrats, Rami.  I saw your bass when I visited the Mothership in August, and I must say it's an awesome instrument.  Not something I would play (hell, I have a hard enough time with 4 strings let alone six!), but it is beautiful - incredible woods, and of course, incredible Alembic craftsmanship.  I'm sure she'll bring you many hours of happiness.  
 
Best regards,
 
Alan

Thanks Mica.  It's just awesome!  Way better than the previous one.  
I can't wait for it's arrival and to finally hear it sing!
 
P.S.  I think any one of David Grego's Basses deserve the title of Ultimate Custom.  Where does this guy get his ideas?!!!

Wow.  Words can't do it justice.
