This is my first Alembic, I don't know much about it, I submitted a serial # inquiry. Plays great, sounds great, and it looked like it had never been played. Bought it about 6 months ago, have hardly put it down since. Payed around 100,000 yen ($850USD) for it. LOVE IT!

Nice!
Those waves are perfect, considering your occupation!
