34" Long Scale
9.4 pounds


I use a suede back strap and it balances perfectly and does not move, no neck dive at all


This is the most comfortable Alembic bass that I have played


Forward strap button does not in any way interfere with my ability to play the upper registers


Top and back look to me like Schedua

Core looks like Koa, maybe Cherry.


Maple and Purple Heart neck (beech center lam?) with what looks like rosewood fretboard, looks like mother of pearl inlays


Sounds and plays beautiful...a wonderful bass

Congratulations & Compliments on yet another great bass, Rob. 

I'm a little partial and pre-disposed to those early-'77 Alembics, and this one isn't too far removed from mine. I'll guess a couple months, maybe six weeks apart.

Congrats!

May be Koa too, the files should clarify...

Very nice!

Thanks

I'm starting to think the fretboard might be darkened Purple Heart...
