But seriously, the Alembic site w/o a custom quote generator?

I was just about to post a question asking when / if /why the quote maker was off line. I haven't been able to access it for a while. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 5406 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 2:49 pm:    www.alembic.com/quote should be active and ready for use! I had some errors when I updated the prices. I'm hoping everything is OK. I still get an error when I run my perl scripts that make it tick, but I'm thinking it's just some trash that Microsoft adds to the source file. Anywhoo, let me know if you find anything screwy! dnburgess Senior Member Username: dnburgess Post Number: 561 Registered: 1-2003 Posted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 3:20 pm:    Thanks!! 3rd_ray Member Username: 3rd_ray Post Number: 54 Registered: 2-2008 Posted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 4:09 pm:    Woo hoo!

Only problem is, it just reminds me that I can't afford what I want... davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6796 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 5:14 pm:    This took a lot of work on Mica's part. When you think about all the options in all the little pull down menus, and about how they all have to be adjusted for each of the different models; it's a lot of detail. hifiguy Intermediate Member Username: hifiguy Post Number: 144 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2008 - 7:42 pm:    Thanx, Mica!

But would be perfect, if after selection of all the things (particularly the woods) we can see a picture of the configured bass....ok, I know this will be very difficult...but I like to see a Stanley Clarke Bass with Macassar Ebony top laminate...could be nice?

You can use the search tool here to find some pictures and then use your imagination from there. I did a search for "macassar" and found these basses that look fairly close to an SC bass: http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/11903.html http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/7481.html Mike ulf New Username: ulf Post Number: 9 Registered: 5-2008 Posted on Friday, July 18, 2008 - 6:58 am:    Mike thanks so lot for these nice pictures!! Looks great! I must ask my dealer, if it is possible to change wood for my ordered Cocobolo... Yes, I also think it would be very difficult to make a picture of any configured bass..

Is this coming, or are the quotes to be for basses only? Thanks, Todd.
