Hi All, I'm selling my 1975 Series I since I haven't been playing it and would like it to move onto a great home. Here's hoping that someone out there will love it as much as I have! Extras include HSC, rack mounted power supply.       (Message edited by davehouck on September 24, 2014) | ||

Wow that's beautiful. I have that bass's slightly younger cousin. That wood combination must be righteous. Wonder what the AE in the Serial# means... | ||

This bass was on EBay with a price of $7,500 and the auction was pulled, as the owner said "it exceeded the amount EBay allowed them to sell". http://alembic.com/club/messages/395/188716.html?1394375626#POST200769 Hopefully more information will be forthcoming. | ||

According to the serial number reference pages 'AE' indicates "Alembic Export General". The various codes can be found here. Keith | ||

Hi all Sorry, that's my earthlink spam filter filtering people Not in my address book. I thought I'd be responding to inquiries here not there so apologies for any inconveniences. From my understanding the AE was a code for export overseas. To my knowledge it's always been in the Western Hemisphere and I've owned it since '85 or '86. The bass is located in New York. | ||

As far as price, I think this bass is an excellent example of the interesting innovations Alembic was spearheading. It's a low serial #, it's in excellent shape, has a custom flight case, it was reconditioning done by Alembic, it has character and personality and should be played. All offers considered | ||

As to GTRGUY's post.... Yes, I did list this on eBay but pulled it due to the limit set on the Reserve. I didn't feel comfortable with a low reserve. This bass, I think you'll agree, is a unique instrument crafted by a leading company in the field and worth every penny that a Fender P might command, and in my opinion is much more interesting. I have this bass, I'd like to find a good home for it to someone serious about playing it and cherishing it like I have. Please keep comments friendly and respectful |
