Beautiful !! If had not just bought an F Bass AC5, I would be thinking hard. GLWTS !

Great details...
 

I have one of these babies in a slightly different wood combo. Fantastic instruments. Pre-amp offers an extraordinary range of voicings. And Alan is a very skilled builder.

Best of luck.

another view.

Note the wood color is more like the top photo (daylight).

the chambered body is a little bit thicker than the typical solid bass

Bump for this beauty.

Tone of the bass and its weight?

Is the board ebony, Pau ferro or something else? Beautiful and unique look.

I believe its Ebony (but will check order)--its hard and very tight grained.

We'll do the scale thing.

Let me try and record a few samples. The East AC dual filters give it an incredible (and almost maddening) range of tone. You can go from hard treble with a deep bottom to a woody mid with a smooooth finish. and on and on and on.

Shift the filter range and add/cut.

Now times by 2.

Really wish I could pick this one up, given how much I'm playing fretless these days!

If possible, I'd love to hear some audio clips.

Wow this is a thing of beauty! As soon as my Zon sells, I'll get back to you!

sorry for delay on clips. My kingdom for a USB cable!
