This on looks to be in real good shape too. Cograts Chris. On a side note the first Alembic I'd ever seen was in 1977, a cat named Chris owned it. dela217 Senior Member Username: dela217 Post Number: 748 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Friday, February 09, 2007 - 9:40 pm:    That is a real nice one! That is the type of bass for me! It looks to be in terrific shape too. Did you get it with a silver or blue power supply?

Congrats! mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 4132 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Friday, February 16, 2007 - 7:37 pm:    Hi Chris, I found the details about your bass. There is only the 3x5 index card with some scant record of the construction, and we haven't seen it here since. Anyway, here's what I know: top and back: California Walnut core: Birch neck: Walnut and Maple, 30.75" short scale fingerboard: Ebony with Abalone inlays peghead veneers: Walnut originally made for: LD Heater, OR birthday: not recorded There is one previous registered owner in CA from 1991. There's no other information to share. But I've added the photos from this page to the file.
