This will arrive Thursday or Friday. Very excited. My first Alembic. Sorry won't have serial no. until then.
 
leaves space for Art to post re-sized pics :-)

Good luck with its timely arrival!  Enjoy Mark!

 

 

Hey, that's another 3/4 size Spoiler. Interesting to see the grain through the flame figuring - nice!

Mark:
 
Really nice top!  Welcome to the club and play it in good health.
 
Bill, the guitar one

That's some crazy figuring on that top.  I bet it looks even better in person.  Best wishes.
 
Kevin

Wow, that's a really neat top.

WOW ! There she is... absolutely breathtaking beauty, Mark. Lucky me that you sent the pictures to Art, I would have gotten blind  
 
cheers from Germany, from my Spoiler Bridget also  
 
Christian

First Alembics are the BEST!  Then you decide...I wonder what another one would sound like...
 
Congratulations, that's a looker for sure!

Mark -  
 
Congrats! That is one beautiful Spoiler. Good luck resisting the urge to want more Alembics.  
 
Welcome to the club.

Thank you guys, It arrived early (this afternoon; I am in the UK) and I have been playing it non-stop. It feels odd having such a narrow neck, after all my Precisions (I have four of them!), but I'm finding it very easy for fingerstyle and the tonal range is superb. The quilt top is every bit as nice as it looks in these pics too! Very pleased :-)

Congratulations on that timely (early, instead of Friday) arrival  Play it Healthy!  Art
