Do I need to provide any other details? ~ Gil tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 1628 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Saturday, May 03, 2014 - 7:23 am:    Gil, The build information for all of the instruments is kept on paper cards in a traditional file system. Mica looks these up when she has time to get to them, which isn't very regularly. I see you're looking to list this bass for sale. If you're in need of details on the electronics, perhaps a call to Alembic might get you the information or some help more quickly. Lovely bass, btw. I love that color.

He was very specific about the color. gil New Username: gil Post Number: 1 Registered: 3-2015 Posted on Friday, May 01, 2015 - 1:14 pm:    Thanks Mica, this is very helpful. The original owner was Mike Porcaro, who had the bass for sale through Bass Center. It really is an amazing versatile instrument with beautiful killer tone. What would be the price of a new one with these specs?
