Unless that Europa is beat to hell, $1,500 is a GREAT price. People who have an Alembic on their wish list should check this one out. No photos of the Alembic in the posting so you'll need to ask. |

Pictures 2 and 3 are of the Europa, maybe they weren't there when you looked earlier. |

Those Yamaha JP's are a fantastic bass as well. |

I didn't see the Europa photos at first (wasn't wearing my glasses) but someone needs to snag this one FAST if its in good condition. If I didn't already have a 6-String Europa I'd be all over it. Priced significantly below most of the Spoilers, Persuaders, Epics, Essences, and just about every other alembic I've seen lately with better electronics. |

Brian the alembic is a 4 string, it's the second and third pictures in the series. Looking at the back it looks like it might have LED's. |

Brian, my bad, I see you already have a Europa not that you thought it was the 6 string! |

I've got a 6er. Just think this is a great buy for a Europa given that I've seen Spoilers selling for $2,000 and above. |

Anybody pulled the trigger on the Europa? I just bought a Rogue otherwise I would be all over it. Always be cautious with deals on CL though, a nice phone call with details discussed is always recommended. |

If that was in Europe at that price...... I'm pretty confident it would have gone already. |

I'm looking for a Series I or II and already have a 6-string Europa but....this is getting more and more tempting. Given the listed price, I'm not sure the seller is totally aware of what he/she has on their hands. I might make a low offer. Have requested addition photos. |

Hmm, Ive done that before.... and despite good advice given to me by forum members about keeping the focus. If what you want is a series bass, leave well alone. You may think you will sell it on when the right bass comes along, but alembics are really hard to part with. That said, I have a weakness for Europa basses. |
