BOdy Shapes

You know an Alembic when you see it, largely because of our distinctive body shapes. We also design custom body shapes for any model, based on any criteria: balance, weight, size, or beauty.

MORE ABOUT BODY SHAPES

Body shapes range in size from the Essence to the Standard Point. Certain shapes, such as the Small Standard family, are suitable only for short scale basses. The Balance K shape works for all scale lengths and string configurations. If you are planning lots of custom electronics, you'll need to shop for the larger body shapes to hold them. Looking for the lightest weight? The smaller forms of the Rogue and Essence will suit you best (combined with material choices).
 We happily craft custom body shapes. Angular, curvaceous, or pure fantasy, just about anything is possible. We have hundreds of templates in our library, and can develop your ideas into reality.
