That’s so 2020. Music has really moved on since then.

A little. That Alembic is to the Mothman what Bela Lugosi's "Dracula" is to Al Lewis' "Grandpa" (from The Munsters).
At 12 lbs 5 oz and one Fugly body style, I'll pass. Some may like it but not me. A waste of beautiful wood.
I always liked the cutaway behind the bridge - kind of a unique and cool Alembic touch. Looks like they might have gotten a little carried away, here.
The omega cut behind the bridge puts quite a bit of distance between the end pin and the bridge, so it's quite a stretch to the first fret on a 34" scale. It's not a problem on a 32" or 30" scale...

I cannot afford this, but felt the need to post it just because it's so pretty! I'm a big fan of nice looking wood grains, and this is a stunner!
I could live with this one. It would fit in the Bentley’s boot rather nice.
All those knobs are a normal Alembic thing. Comes with free shipping.

I see what you did there. And I am obligated not to discuss the lack of physical appearance of such hypothetical instrument.
