You can adjust almost everything. 1992 Alembic Europa 5-String Scale Length: 34" Thru body neck: 4 maple + 3 purple heart laminates Fingerboard: Ebony Nut Width: 1.875" 24th fret width: 2.930" Truss rods: Dual, body adjust Body wood: Mahogany w/ Quilted Maple top Body depth: 1.50" Finish: High gloss polyester Pickups: MXY56 Controls: vol, pan, low-pass filter w/ Q switch, quick tone change switches (bass and treble cut/boost) Tailpiece: Solid brass bird Machine heads: Gold Alembic-Gotoh 100% Made in Santa Rosa, CA The electronics and the frets are in excellent shape. The action on this guy is the way I like - Super low. All original. Tonally, the bass is deep and crisp. Lots of snap for a great slap tone, and there's plenty of low end. The bass comes in an Alembic form-fit case. Sacrifice for $2900  | ||

Received the bass about 2 hours ago and (even though I'm at work) couldn't put it down. A truly amazing piece. The photo above doesn't even do it justice. Cameron, thank you again for the smooth transaction and for the record, I wouldn't hesitate to buy from you again. Thanks to everyone for you kind comments. Ellery (Lowlife) | ||
