I love it. What really amazes me most is that whilst it looks pretty understated, a real "Plain Jane" looking to me, the sound is just something else and it's actually mine. When I was in my late teens/early 20's and getting into bands, there were only two guitars in my wish list even though at the time I a guitarist who really wanted to be a bass player.
A Fender Strat and an Alembic like Stanley Clarke played. Which is kind of strange really because at the time I was heavily into the sound of Aston Familyman Barrett who was fender guy. But when I was introduced to the music Stanley was playing I decided that when I get round to playing bass I wanted one that had that diversity in sound. It took me a while to firstly find out it was an alembic he was playing and also to find the right one but I got there in the end via a real round-about route with a few pleasant diversions on the way.
