If any member here is interested then I would probably give a very reasonable b.i.n option exclusively to fellow Alembic club members! These are absolute killer basses handbuilt (virtually with hand tools only) by the outstanding young Italian luthier Armando Pugliese - no cnc routing machines here folks! Pics upon request.

I ran a search for Prometeus on Ebay and came up with nothing. white_cloud Senior Member Username: white_cloud Post Number: 651 Registered: 11-2007 Posted on Sunday, April 19, 2009 - 5:31 am:    Sorry Dave, I should clarify the listing appears on ebay.co.uk - I have stated worldwide postage so I assumed that it would automatically appear on ebay.com Go to www.prometeusguitars.com where my stunning Zebrawood fretless is the main picture on the site. My fretted is also featured on the site in a video where the famous french bassist Patrick Djivas (a close friend of the late great Jaco Pasorius) plays it and states in Italian "first class!"

Perhaps an element of "its too good to be true?" Heres a pic for you all.
