All I can say is WOW! This is one sexy bass. And wait until you see it paired with the Myrtle core - amazing.

Macassar ebony, I would imagine - and are those ovals in vermillion?

This bass has a Coco Bolo fingerboard, and it's just dust in the oval cuts for now.

Is that a maple body and what kind of electronics is this one getting?

Myrtle body,signature elec.Mica picked the vermilion and the fingerboard woods,good taste.How about a close-up,Mica

Too cool- really interesting body/top lam wood combination.  Throw in the ebony neck lams and you're gonna have a very unique bass.
 
I'm unsure of your Alembic background, but I have a signature equipped Rogue and I just love it.  Really versatile setup.

The color similarity in the vermillion and the red highlights in the CB is something I've never seen played on.  Great idea.  This one's going to be a stunner.

Bassman,I've been thinking about the red in the CB,alot.Seems to be a lighting issue the vermilion is alot darker than the pics at top also,I wish it would stay the color it looks but I kinda doubt it.

I was wondering about how much light had to do with the highlights showing up like that.  CB and vermilion both darken with age, too.  I think it's going to be a beauty no matter how you cut it.
