Perfect condition. This bass can be found on ebay ( germany ). I'm thinking of 2500 € shipped in germany. malthumb Senior Member Username: malthumb Post Number: 553 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Thursday, October 24, 2013 - 11:50 am:    Something told me not to click the link.

Can you post the link? bassicmusik New Username: bassicmusik Post Number: 9 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Friday, October 25, 2013 - 12:25 am:    Sorry - here is the link: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Alembic-Essence-5-fretless-Ahorn-Maserknolle-/111192573916?pt=Gitarren&hash=item19e39807dc#ht_595wt_1142 International shipping is no problem. Insured shipping to America is something about 50 € - 80 €.

I think about €400 to the US is more realistic... And there will be import duty + tax if you ship outside the EU, might not apply for US (someone prob. chime in, but I think you can mark it as "returned US goods") I had some interest from Austria for my bass, shipping would be +/- €150 (by UPS, from Holland) Awesome bass! bassicmusik New Username: bassicmusik Post Number: 10 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Friday, October 25, 2013 - 1:04 am:    Hi fc spoiler, I referred to DHL germany. Shipping to the USA is 66 € ( up to 20 kg ) plus 20 € for the additional length "Sperrgutzuschlag". The bass will be shipped in a Hiscox flightcase. There will be some case-candys too: perfect tools ( quality from Hazet germany ;-)), security locks, levis strap... This shipping is insured up to 2500 €. Of course there will be duty and tax, if the bass is sold outside europe. Kind regards, Chris bassicmusik Junior Username: bassicmusik Post Number: 11 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Monday, October 28, 2013 - 2:37 am:    As the bass has not been sold via Ebay, I'm open for offers ( no trades, cash only ). Worldwide shipping is possible. Kind regards, Chris bigbadbill Senior Member Username: bigbadbill Post Number: 539 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 03, 2013 - 3:22 am:    That is absolutely gorgeous. If only I hadn't recently bought a Wal Pro.... hifiguy Advanced Member Username: hifiguy Post Number: 386 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Sunday, November 03, 2013 - 11:59 am:    You're more likely to see another gorgeous Alembic in the near future than a Wal, Bill. Ya done the right thing. bigbadbill Senior Member Username: bigbadbill Post Number: 542 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 03, 2013 - 1:10 pm:    I guess you do see a lot of gorgeous Alembics! :-) bassicmusik Junior Username: bassicmusik Post Number: 12 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 12:20 am:    Pricedrop: starting at 2000 €.
