And just a short drive from my family's ancestral home of Huncote, in Leichester... unfortunately, we left there about four centuries ago. =) frankfiveinc Junior Username: frankfiveinc Post Number: 13 Registered: 6-2014 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 2:38 pm:    that's a beauty! Could someone elaborate on the difference with the "signature electronics"? I was hoping to find a 5-string Essence, Spoiler, Distillate, or other thru-neck 5-string with filter adjustment. How would this compare? enzo Senior Member Username: enzo Post Number: 490 Registered: 4-2009 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 2:45 pm:    The signature package is a step up from the models you mentioned. It has Volume, pan, 2 filters and 2 Q switch. It's a freaking bargain! wookie Advanced Member Username: wookie Post Number: 227 Registered: 8-2010 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 3:02 pm:    Isn't that like $900!? That's nuckin' futs! yggdrasil Intermediate Member Username: yggdrasil Post Number: 193 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 3:20 pm:    It's about $2150 USD pasewark Advanced Member Username: pasewark Post Number: 270 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 3:36 pm:    Sweet. I'd like to get an Alembic 5 string at some point! jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 4518 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2015 - 10:08 pm:    If I wasn't consciously focussing on saving my pennies until the right series I or II shortie comes along this one would be heading my way PDQ. savuok New Username: savuok Post Number: 8 Registered: 3-2015 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2015 - 1:05 am:    I think that it has re-appeared here in the club.. http://alembic.com/club/messages/394/185839.html?1387910169 http://alembic.com/club/messages/395/144321.html?1354053958 jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 4519 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2015 - 2:02 am:    Well spotted my friend and it looks like the 2nd time I've posted it and third time I've considered buying it. I still think it's a very tempting bass to acquire especially as the price is much more attractive now. I'd love to try it out but fear it may lead to a battle with my willpower. frankfiveinc Junior Username: frankfiveinc Post Number: 14 Registered: 6-2014 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2015 - 5:17 am:    > "Unfortunately, he declined international shipping.
