Three very nice guitars on eBay from miami vintage guitars net Are the prices on these a little high, or do they have upgrades that merit the opening bid? (Message edited by longhorncat on October 14, 2009) |

Miami Vintage Guitars is an Alembic dealer. All three guitars are listed as "new". The Further is shown on their website as a 2008, the Tribute as 2009, and the Darling as 2006. The price on the Tribute appears to be significantly less than retail. Upgrades on the Darling include the Coco-bolo top, LEDs and gold plated hardware. |

I have purchased 2 Alembics from Miami Vintage Guitars, one is a Custom Buckeye Burl Further and the other is a Stanley Clark Deluxe Signature bass. They were great to deal with and I have seen all thee of these instruments. The Further above is a 2009 I believe, not a 2008. The Darling is beautiful. I would love to take the Tribute, but I spent enough on toys this year. If anyone is interested, give them a call, Artie is realy easy to talk to and very knowlegeable. Paul |
