Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Nice writeup by the Alembic folks!!  And cool bass, although the style doesn't really appeal to me.

A guy on another (now defunct) forum owned this bass I think. Still may for all I know. Out of all the Alembics I've seen over the years, this was the one I really liked. Way outta my league, but if I won the lottery I'd buy one immediately!

Here's the "Featured Custom" page for that bass - it was on consignment at Bass and Beyond in Sacramento a couple of years ago, not sure if it ever actually sold...

That looks LONG! I wonder if they are heavy?

Ohh, Love the Triple Omega! Not really a bad price either considering what a new one would cost, wonder why it didn't sell?
Nothing is what it seems but everthing is exactly what it is.

Couldn't say why but now there's an "Exploiter" up... no pics but he links 8 youtube vids to show what she sounds like...

... and a "LEFTY" of a design I've not seen before...

The Epic has been around for years. IIRC it's set neck, not neck through. Fifteen years ago it was their lowest price model, don't know if that's still true.

A member at the old Pit (v.1) bought an Entwistle-owned Exploiter, it was darker than the one you usually saw JE playing. I remember helping him locate a video that had his in it.
