Very nice looking top. I don't think it's Maple. The listing says Flamed Walnut. |

Someone should inform him the lemon oil is for the neck. Talk about a fine smelling instrument... all my lines are lemony-fresh Mike |

This is such a good price, and - since it's in EU - I wouldn't have to pay duties/taxes... And I have NO MONEY at the moment!!! Even if I sold my Nexus I wouldn't be able to save up... AAAAARGH!!!!! I have to repeat the Alembic mantra... Again and again and again... There will always be another one. There will always be another one. There will always be another one... |

It doesn't look like a Pau ferro fingerboard either. I'd say more likely to be a figured ebony as that was standard on the epic. graeme |

looks like John 'Whitecloud' might be showing interest in this aswell as Georgieboy. Hope one of them gets it - that'd keep it in Scotland at least. Graeme |

No it wasn't me. I had a limit of £800--no more. Hope it's still in the country somewhere. |
