Gorgeous. Curious to see if it sells at that starting price.

The Alembic Spoiler stands out in my mind because the one I handled way back in the day had the most comfortable neck I have ever put my hands on. I have always wanted one but never seriously enterained the thought because of the price. That price is amazing, it will be interesting to see what it actually goes for.
I sure wish I had the money for that one! :cry:

I'm watching it too - a lefty Alembic short/medium scale is one of those basses I simply must own eventually...but I'm betting this one doubles in price by the time it sells, and unfortunately it won't be me paying that much for it. :lol:

That looks more like a Signature Standard, no?

I thought Spoilers looked like this...

Yeah, I noticed that too, but signatures are also way more expensive. I think it's probably a signature body with the Spoiler electronics, which are cheaper than the signature electronics...and WAY cheaper than the Series I/II electronics. :shock:

Well I bid at the last second, but apparently didn't have as deep of pockets as the other bidders. :lol: I think someone got a very good deal on an Alembic!
