The materials are Mother-of-Pearl and abalone.
When I talked to Mica, she was figuring that it was probaly made by Alembic, ,and could have been a second that somehow escaped, or it could have been an employee project. Either way it was probaly made at the Alembic factory back in 74.
Underneath the deep engraved serial number on the headstock was another serial number that I told Mica about, it was 74-64, which scared the hell out of me cause I thought ie was the stolen one. When I talked to Mica though, she told me that 74-64 had a maple top, which this one doesn't, and there were alot of other differences. We also figured that this might have been a previous one with that number, and when they decided not to originally sell it, they reused the serial number on a different bass, then this one somehow escaped.
Mica started a file on my bass. There is still speculation about alot of things with this bass, but like I said, she told me that it was most likely made by Alembic.
