Hey,

I own an alembic epic 5 with the stock epic electronics. Is it possible to upgrade to Signature electronics? How much would it cost, and would it require any additional wood working or routing?

Hi Nelson, welcome to the board. I can get you started by guessing at the ball park. According to the Alembic site, when ordering a new Epic, the upgrade to Essence controls is $200; and when ordering a new Essence, the upgrade to Signature controls is $850. Thus a ballpark guess might be $1,050. As to whether it's possible or if routing is required, I don't know. If my guess at the ballpark seems like something worth pursuing further, then perhaps the next step would be to give Val a call.
