Dave, I got the crew neck sweatshirt for me and the hoodie for my wife along with a T shirt and coffee mugs. Excellent products! The logos are huge and bright. We have received many compliments, though nobody knows what "Alembic" is, they sure love their logo. My morning coffee also taste better!

Dave,
I got a Navy hoodie for my wife and she likes it a lot. For myself it was a T shirt. The graphics on both are great and the clothing itself is of very good quality.

I wore my T shirt out the other night. The guitar player and drummer playing that night came over and chatted with us. The bass player wouldn't even look directly at me. Hummm....

Well,I received my hoodie last Thurs. and I have gotten lot's of positive compliments.Very good quality and I'm very happy with my purchase.It looks great.I felt so good about ordering that hoodie that I also ordered an Alembic strap to go along with it.The four inch Alembic embossed in black.WOW.A great strap indeed.Much better than I thought it was going to be.I used it the very next night at a gig and after three one hour sets,my back felt great.Usually I have to sit a spell to let my back straighten itself out but not this time.What a great feeling to not be in serious pain after a show.Plus wearing the hoodie made for a great weekend.
Cheers all.

SmokinDave:

GOOD to see you 'round again!

I'm about THIS close to getting one of those 4" straps: I just wanna know that it DOESN'T kinda 'vee' in the middle and put all the weight on one line while you're wearing your axe.

What can you tell me?

Hey Joey,
I'm alway's lurking around the club.In my opinion you should go for it.I wear my bass up high on my chest so I don't forsee any "V" action happening with my strap.If you wear your bass low,I couldn't tell you but I can tell you that to me,it was waaaay worth the investment.It's just a very well made strap and I may get another one for the Epic.
DO IT MAN,DO IT.
Hmmmmmm.....coffee mugs eh'?I may have to get me a mug as well.My morning coffee is pretty damn good but going down the gullet straight out of an Alembic coffee mug may make mine better as well southpaw.

I'm wondering if Alembic coffee mugs bring out more of the "fundamental" flavor of the coffee??

And the LEDS on the handle make it much easier to find your mouth and avoid spilling when drinking in the dark!

Bill, tgo

I suppose that one problem might be getting up to walk outside with your cup of coffee in hand and forgetting that the 5-pin cable is still plugged in.
