Rather stunning, I'm sure it will be responsible
for numerous cases of whiplash.

Ken,

Congrats! That's a nice buckeye top. Beautiful example of a Rogue.

Wow, just beautiful. Great piece of buckeye burl, really exciting grain pattern! Congratulations!

Hi Ken

Absolutely fantastic!!! That is one fabulous looking bass. Seems strange seeing it finished after our numerous discussions! Utterly beautiful though. And as for the inlays, well I said nobody does 'em like Alembic.....

All the best

Truely, no one anywhere on earth does as fine a job with Buckeye Burl as the good people at Alembic. I have seen several other makes over the years, and most don't come even close. From one Buckeye owner to another, congratulations on a gorgeous guitar!

Ken,
That is one sweet bass.
This is way all the ladies love bass players.
CONGRATULATIONS

I think I really like buckeye burl. Wow. What are the tonal characteristics with the buckeye. Now I think I want a Rogue with buckeye burl.

Wow. Stunning. Congratulations from one Rogue owner to another.... I'm sure it sounds as sweet as it looks.
