I'm late on this but what the heck! That bass is stunning! I might add that I am not a big fan of the Excel but your custom idea changed my thinking of the bass. What a fantastic instrument, I'm sure you have been enjoying it to the fullest. Take care

This is a very cool bass.  Just updating with a recent photo. The colors have darkened nicely and it's in mint condition.

Indeed - beautiful!  (I yearn for an Alembic fretless to fall into my lap, but...)
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Nice that you gave your bass a trip to the spa.  Mine wants one too, but it will be a while.

I'd forgotten about this one Rob. Wow, now that's a sweet Custom fretless.  :D

Thanks, Greg, it’s a great bass. My heaviest bass too, 12 lbs. I think Excels are solid body.

Hey Rob,


Glad to see my 'old' bass is in a loving home and in good shape! Play her in good health.

Adam, that is truly a magnificent bass!  I brought it to Alembic and had a couple of switches replaced and had it cleaned up nicely.  A wonderful bass, but I ended up selling it to purchase a Series bass.  I hope to buy another fretless Alembic sometime in the future.  -Rob

Just sharing a recent pic from a jam a few weeks ago - glad this bass is back home.

I have always really loved this bass. It looks like it knows it's cool.
