I was given a five string 1990 Spoiler,in very good almost excellent condition,a few weeks ago. I didn't realize what I had until about a week later when I started reseaching the bass on the internet. What a blessing!!! I'm a beginner so hopefully I've got some music in me. Peace. tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 907 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Saturday, October 04, 2008 - 6:45 am:    Congratulations Byron and welcome to the forum. Pictures are always welcome around here, if you have the ability to take some digital photos we'd love to have a look at that Spoiler. richbass939 Senior Member Username: richbass939 Post Number: 983 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Saturday, October 04, 2008 - 8:44 am:    Byron, Welcome to the club. That is outrageously great to be given an Alembic. Starting at the top!

Five string Spoilers are a little on the rare side; so that's even cooler! terryc Senior Member Username: terryc Post Number: 603 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 12:07 pm:    1jamjam - you lucky man and a 5 stringer, welcome to our elite place. To be given an Alembic to learn on instead of the really bad beginner basses most of us learnt on is a truly amazing gift. I am afraid you will find all other basses pale into insignificance. pauldo Member Username: pauldo Post Number: 68 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 4:17 pm:    Byron, Welcome - come on in and get your groove on!

Many of us have more the one Alembic but you are the first I've heard of who was given one. Your karma account must be maxed!!
