What an absolutely gorgeous Rogue. One of the nicest looking black basses I have ever seen.
Gorgeous! Wish it was fretless :)

Are you looking for a fretless 5?
I have a nice one. Message me.
Triple black! Where's Danno?
Bill, tgo
I'm sure Mica and team could make it fret less if you asked... if Jaco can do it I'm sure Alembic could too. ;)
Happy to enjoy this bass for years to come. I figured some rocker would love to have this one in their collection...
Price dropped to $7000.
Going to take some new photos of this bass as the ones posted dont do it justice. It has a gloss finish on the body, a satin finish on the back of the neck, and has blue LED's. For Halloween last year, I used this bass, and I added "phases of the moon" fingerboard inlay stickers. You cannot feel them when playing, from 5 feet, they look like rather expensive inlays. They are easily removable if you think they take away from the simple elegance of a black-on-black bass.
