If you are looking for a triple omega 5 string, in short scale, you may want to check this one out. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7420730427&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:UK:1 I doubt if this one will have neck dive balance problems associated with other short scale 5 string basses. Gosh this seller also has a Garcia as well. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7420717738&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RSII_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT happy bidding. :-) Maybe Barbie and Ken can start a band..... :-) | ||

Got mine today. I did not meet the reserve (whatever it was), but was offered a 'second chance' offer (finally, a legitimate "2nd chance offer"), & took it for $35US. While it is NOT an actual, true to scale and highly detailed reproduction of an Alembic bass, it is a fairly nice novelty item, more along the lines of a holiday or birthday gift, rather than a high-dollar collectible piece (in other words, I wouldn't think that any Alembic trademarks or proprietary designs were infringed upon here, but Susan will have the final say on that). I must admit, though, it has a very nice Alembic-like high gloss finish to it; now, if I can just find one in Buckyeye Burl.......... |
