I don't think I've ever seen such up-close and detailed pics of this bass.
I hope I'm not stealing someone else's thunder by posting this link. Too cool not to mention here.

  Thank You, Thank You, Thank You !!!!

This is my particular favorite fretboard inlay !

Outrageous !!   What an instrument !!

Loved the pics on the facebook link. WOW!

What a spectacular piece of functional art! So ahead of its time.

I saw the FB post as well . There seems to be somewhat a bit of confusion regarding this instrument and assumption and misinformation among some folks who are not in our close Alembic community here . I made a comment regarding the electronics  shown in the photos as well . The photos are indeed a pleasure to view for me .

What a magnificent work of art!  Fantastic pictures!  Thanks, Tom, for posting!        

On many occasions  I saw and heard Mr.Jack Casady play this instrument in very close proximity to my ears and eyes, back in the day . That was with the original electronics.

Appears to still have at least some variation on Series I electronics in there. Great to see that bass in such good shape. I was just thinking - it must be something of a powerful deja vu for RT to hold it after all this time.

The fine tuners and the tail piece assembly are very interesting indeed  !
