Since I got my six string Rogue it has hardly ever been out of its case. Plenty of pictures and information at http://alembic.com/club/messages/394/41849.html?1187807493#POST90006. Asking AUS$2500.00. I would prefer pick up but am happy to arrange shipping at buyers expense. derekh Junior Username: derekh Post Number: 20 Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Thursday, June 05, 2014 - 7:43 pm:    Still available derekh Junior Username: derekh Post Number: 21 Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Friday, June 13, 2014 - 11:51 pm:    SOLD. The Essence was picked up today by another Alembic Club member. Glad it was a member who appreciated what he was getting. slawie Senior Member Username: slawie Post Number: 637 Registered: 8-2002 Posted on Saturday, June 14, 2014 - 3:58 am:    Oh yeah you got that right Derek. It is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much my friend. It is a 15 year old bass that looks like it's 15 minutes old! Happy dance all night long.

Sorry to see her go. Regards to "She who must be obeyedd" for her endorsement. derekh Junior Username: derekh Post Number: 23 Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Saturday, June 14, 2014 - 6:53 am:    Thanks also to tomhug for his interest he was well in the running. The eBay experience was not as good as it could have been - three weeks with only offers of near 50% of asking price. I believe was asking a fair price and would have rather kept it than much lower than I was asking. I fortunately was not in the position to sell at any price. I think you need to be a true Alembician to know what they are worth in the after market. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 11359 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Saturday, June 14, 2014 - 6:45 pm:    Love that top! tomhug Intermediate Member Username: tomhug Post Number: 115 Registered: 7-2008 Posted on Sunday, June 15, 2014 - 11:12 am:    <sniff> . . . . Just kidding, glad it found an enthusiastic new home. Derek, even though we didn't actually do business, it was a pleasure corresponding with you. Your Rogue 6 is beautiful (from what I can see here on the club). Congrats, Slawie! I told Derek that I definitely believe in the serendipity of such things. ( and I am fortunate enough have a couple other Santa Rosa creations to keep me company in the meantime... )
