I maybe selling my Exploiter because it just doesn't get used that much any more. It is one of those - happy to keep it but ready to let it go for the right price! So, my question is to those in the know - what should the bass be valued at? It is pristine, I'm the only owner it's had and pics are in the link below: http://alembic.com/club/messages/397/52399.html?1215697122 Thanks. bassclef29 Junior Username: bassclef29 Post Number: 11 Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 9:49 am:    Gareth, What is the scale length, 32" or 34"? Thanks. garethnh Member Username: garethnh Post Number: 62 Registered: 5-2008 Posted on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 9:58 am:    Hi. 34". bassclef29 Junior Username: bassclef29 Post Number: 12 Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 10:27 am:    Gareth, Appreciate the reply. I checked out your Who2 videos. Very nice playing and vocals by all concerned. I had a 1986 Exploiter but I sold it because you couldn't blend the pickups except 50/50 and it was just a 32" scale (I favor 34"). So your axe would address these needs. Next question is, will my wife leave me for a harmonica player for even thinking about acquiring another bass? garethnh Member Username: garethnh Post Number: 63 Registered: 5-2008 Posted on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 11:07 am:    Thanks Joe. Well, mine is all singing and all dancing - Signature Elecs etc etc. A great instrument, but as you have no doubt noticed on the vids I now have one of The Ox's Status Graphite Buzzards and the Alembic is too expensive an instrument to have as a mere back up bass...... I'm sure your wife will start to speak to you again after a few months...... ;-)
