I just bought an Alembic bass from my boss yesterday and I'd like to know a little about it, mainly the types of woods it's made of and the history. Thanks. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 3112 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, February 01, 2006 - 8:28 am:    Hi Jimmy; congrats and welcome! lysosome New Username: lysosome Post Number: 2 Registered: 1-2006 Posted on Thursday, February 02, 2006 - 3:43 am:    Hey Dave, thanks for the welcome.
