Not bad...
 
I believe, Wolf and I had come full circle on adjustable pickups.  
 
The basses from you link, looks really sleek and futuristic. Those bass looks to something from a Star Wars film. In fact, I had to convince myself those objects are bass guitars.

Those are interesting Taylor .  Very futuristic . I would have to agree with Hal that they that they might require a  cognitive reminder that they are musical instruments.

Taylor,
 
The rails are so large, it's the foundation which structurally supports not only the pickups, but the entire body... Then, if that's not enough, the maker prints: THE RAIL DAMMMM!  
 
From a design perspective, the more you project the rails, the more you have to remove a classical esthetically well understood -- exotically created, wooden bass.  
 
I think your example, is very-far to the right of the scale. Extremely radical. But it is still very relevant to this sub-discussion.
 
Thanks.  
 
P.S.
This bass almost looks like a miniaturized old vintage style, sliding X-Ray machine.

The Spirits are completely in harmony.

The essences of the Toma_Hawk completed. The Spirit transformation left a permanent fusion of Purple, Green, Blue, Red, and Orange to mark a convergent mix.
 
Smiling colors!

Hal, that last image is very cool - think you may have to make an acrylic Tomahawk.
 
I'm guessing that Alembic have never built an acrylic series bass/guitar. Suddenly I want one.

Garth,
 
That's a interesting looking bass. Hey, man if this is your dream bass, go for it and don't let nothing stand in your way.
 
I can't wait to see your FTC.
