A friend of mine needs to sell his '92 Alembic Essence 5, maple body with a sweet flame maple top. The bass is in sweet condition, everything works perfectly, the neck is stable, the electronics are 100% functional and quiet. I didn't notice any dings or scratches - there might be some signs of use on the back of the body but not big enough for me to remember. I recorded with that bass and it sounded great (the CD will be out soon). Got huge compliments from the sound engineer. The asking price is 2800 Euros - a dedicated hardshell case and shipping within Europe are included in the price. Of course, if you want, you can come to Poland and visit my friend personally to collect the bass - in such case, a good drinking session is included too ;-) I'll serve as an intermediary here, as my English is better than my friend's so you can email me with questions at jaroslawjerzy@gazeta.pl. Here's a link to several good quality photos: http://picasaweb.google.pl/grubynoiz/Alembic# And a link to a Polish auction: http://allegro.pl/item675871630_alembic_essence_5.html And finally, a song by my friend's band where the Alembic was used (note: the bass used in the video is a GMR bass but it was the Essence that was used in the actual recording); warning: HEAVY content ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n94EUXLZ3ZE&feature=channel_page |
