Same topwood as my orion guitar. Would be a nice sibling for it.
Great looking axe.

I got this yesterday for 1700.00 in Dayton Ohio at Absolute Music. This was New Old Stock bass from 2001. I have another Orion on order with Signature electronics. Thanks for the comments.

Hey! I've played that bass!
 
;)
 
Nice score-it's a beautiful guitar, and the tone is excellent, as I'm sure you know.
 
Play it in good health!

My alembic orion was also a new Old Stock never sold/used guitar that I got from a dealer in Germany.
When I got it, it was absolutely mint condition.  I had to remove and adjust the controls as the case it came in wasn't a good fit so i think they got a bit of a bashing on the way here.  
 
Once that was done it sang like a sweet bird.
