I found her used in 1978.

Pretty cool. Looks like a nice piece of Koa to me. I love the flames in the wood!!!

She looks well cared for. I really like the patina that the brass gets with age.

Ken,

Yes, your bass is a nice representation of a Koa made Alembic.

Thanks for the picture,

Darrell

Tie me to an anthill and smear my ears with jam...

That's a keeper!!!

Played at a blues jam on Sunday and an old friend, Bob Karambalas, got this wonderful picture of my baby. 33 years together and counting.

I like it. Half a mega. Color is outstanding.

Love the Koa!
In the photo the lighting makes it look like a Koa burst. What's the wood face of the Headstock?

Thanks guys, Bob was a sound guy locally back in the day and is now shooting pics. He has a great eye and great composition. If we could get that old guy out of the frame my bass would be a lot prettier for certain. nnek, the headstock face I believe is Bocate. Please feel free to check out Bob's facebook photos, really nice stuff...
