Hi!

I just bought a Alembic Essence 5 Strings Buckeye Burl.

I bought it from a Alembic forum member called Russ Levitt. He told me that he was the second owner. The instrument don't arrived here in Brazil yet, so I would like to request some infos about it.

Could you give me more information about the instrument? Who was the first owner? Was a custom order? Did you have additional pictures of the instrument?

To help you to find the bass at your archive I have a part of the serial number, that is: 04K1XX65. I know that is very rare to see an Essence with this top, so I hope you could find it for me.

Thanks!

Have a nice day!

The XX is either 32 or 33, so 04K13265 or 04K13365.

Plz post many pictures when it arrives and congrats!

Congrats Viny,
an educated guess...is this the one?
buckeye essence 5

I'd love to see some more pics too, that's quite a top, and I bet she sounds as good as she looks.

Hi ElwoodBlue!

Yes, that's him!

I can't wait to have it in my hands! I'm very anxious! Hehehe...

I'd like to know about the history of it, first owner, type of order, more pics and etc...

Mica! Could you help me?

Thanks folks!
