Hello Fellow Alembicans! This bass was originally purchased from Andy Fortier. After reception, I had it re-setup and fine tuned by Gary Bower Guitars in San Francisco. This bass is just immaculate. I honestly cannot recall a finer example of a 1982 vintage. There are no dings, dents, or even scratches to speak of. The bass has a smooth mirror like satin finish in cocobolo with Red LED's and an Omega Cutout. It is Medium Scale. Please see the image slide show below for picture detail. http://img705.imageshack.us/slideshow/player.php?id=img705/6643/1267391552lwo.smil Static Images: http://img705.imageshack.us/g/tiltedfrontbottomupshot.jpg/ Please feel free to ask any questions. Includes: Alembic Series 2 Mono/Stereo Box, Series 2 Connection Cable (long), and the original Hardcover Case. From what I understand, this bass was originally purchased in 1982 and added to a larger collection which was kept on private display or storage for several years until it was finally purchased, in like new condition, a few years ago. Price: $6000 Neil Godbole (Message edited by neilvg on February 28, 2010) |

Hi Neil Could you change the slideshow to one that has static images ? When the images change so fast like that it is really kind of hard to get a good look. Also, whats under the circular brass plate above the omega cut in back? |

Do you mean the battery compartment? Two 9 volt batteries. I imagine people contemplating spending over $5K on a bass will want better pictures. That seems reasonable. |
