I noticed that one last night on Craigslist. Older Series II perhaps ? |

It's hard to tell from the picture whether those are switches or CVQs. Nicer pictures would definitely be helpful. |

Dave, the extra large knob is probably a master vol, so it's either S1 with MV, or S2... Blowing up the photo a little it does look more like CVQ. Sweet. |

I'm also thinking S2. I was in touch with the owner last week, but he appears to have drifted away since then. |

Yes it is an S2! Could be an early '80's model and look at the back plate........continuous wood!! If it's in decent shape this is not a bad deal. |

I tend to agree that if it's an S2 and in good shape, it does appear to be a very good deal. |

The posting has expired. I emailed the owner, yesterday, and have yet to receive a response... |

You wonder why people even bother posting things if they're not going to respond to queries. It's a really strange thing. Sigh. |

Then it sold. That would be my assumption. |

If it sold, why was the posting left up so long without a response of any kind? I'm not the only one who had a hard time getting a response from the guy. You'd think common courtesy would dictate some form of response, like, "Hey, it sold, thanks for your interest," you know? At least, that's what I would do if I had something listed on Craig's List... Peace;) Frank |

I have found Craigslist is one of those places that people list on and forget about, it's just not a very personal place. |

Chalie, Shawn, I'll do my best, I promise. My wife forgot the camera, but I have a decent one on my iPhone... I'll do what I can. I'm actually in Parsippany, right now @ The Hampton Inn. We're hitting NYC, tomorrow, if any of you guys from the area would like to hook up, in New York, that would be awesome!!! Peace;) Frank/OTiS |

I recently bought a Tacoma JR55 acoustic (Jumbo Rosewood -- top of the line Tacoma). Will someday be a highly sought after guitar, I am betting. This is the USA acoustic guitar no longer made in the great Northwest because Fender bought them and closed them down. Yesterday I bought a Roland AC90 Acoustic Amp. I am blowing myself away with this combo. Not Alembic, but I plan to record with the Tacoma and mix in the old Series I bass (could be some offerings from the Series I guitar as well.) |

I spent the day in NYC, for the first time, August 7th! It was cool. Then hit the Alembic Gathering, August 8th, and played Peabody's in Cleveland, Sunday. Not bad for a weekend! I had the most fun at the Gathering, though, hands down! Sorry you missed it, kfs! Later;) Frank www.myspace.com/otiserie |
