What about a EUROPA 5-string? adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 1656 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, October 22, 2007 - 1:17 pm:    Remember that Alembic production must be about 500 instruments each year (15,000 in over 30 years). There just won't be as many second-hand ones on the market as - say - Fenders. longhorncat Advanced Member Username: longhorncat Post Number: 224 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Monday, October 22, 2007 - 1:24 pm:    How about a Rogue 5: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260172688851 alembicfan New Username: alembicfan Post Number: 4 Registered: 10-2007 Posted on Tuesday, October 23, 2007 - 10:27 am:    Thanks.

Great store but as you said: no Elan`s or Europa`s! They said that they`re hard to get! Must wait! jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 1423 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Tuesday, October 23, 2007 - 12:46 pm:    The rogue is almost identical to the europa, just a bit better looking (just kidding) and alot lighter. It has slightly more versatile electronics than the elan too.
