Yes folks, this is the one that I recently acquired from another club member just 2 months ago. To say that it was an impluse buy would be an under-statement! My style of lazy playing does not work at all on a fretless, and although I thought I could, I do not have the desire to learn another instrument. So it's now up for sale. Here's the link to the previous thread on this fine instrument: http://alembic.com/club/messages/395/48923.html?1207941381 Nothing has changed except that the bass is now 2 months older, it's got a new set of D'Addario flat wound strings and a setup. Serial number is 000W12383 and I'm sure that Alembic can supply you with the build specifications. It comes with a semi-rigid, soft-sided case. I would like to get back what I paid for it which is $1,700.00. If you're interested you can email me directly at ellerysoifer@gmail.com Ellery (Lowlife)

Hi Ellery, Darn, part of me was hoping that you would say 35", that way, my interest would have pretty much gone away, since I prefer 34" 5's. I really need another bass like a hole in the head, really. I will have to think about this seriously, and will get back to you. Of course, if someone else comes along, don't hesitate to sell. That's my buddy, Yogi, who is a rescue dog from Los Angeles. As best as I can determine, I think he is Havanese. This is just based on characteristics. At some point, I may do a dna test, just for the heck of it. Thanks for your time, and quick response. Tim |

The bass was sold today to a young local (Montreal) musician who is a far better player than I am. This bass (IMHO) deserved a good home and now has one. Ellery (Lowlife) |
