For $10 grand, I would hope they'd make this in a lefty... nice looking bass, with a video of Stanley playing it...

I swear every time I turn around Stanley has yet another Alembic in his hands. I must have seen him with at least 30 different Sig basses over the years. My faves are the ones with Cocobolo tops. In fact, it was these basses that turned me on to Cocobolo.

I went to the NoTreble link and the banner ad to the right of Stanley's bass is an ad for a catheter company! Are they saying that Alembic buyers are middle-aged or just me?? :lol: :lol:

Maybe they're suggesting you'll piss yourself when you see the price?

Or are they suggesting this bass will only appeal to old rockers with prostate problems and fat wallets?! :shock: :)
