The body has significant checking but the seller indicates that it is in otherwise good shape. Front & back are maple, neck is maple with purple heart, & the headstock walnut. He does not have the power supply or cord. Are these still available from Alembic for a 30-year old instrument? I wasn't able to arrange see it this weekend but it's local so I'll be able to check it out. Is this a reasonable (i.e., fair) asking price given the lack of power supply and condition? longhorncat Advanced Member Username: longhorncat Post Number: 362 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Sunday, May 02, 2010 - 7:43 pm:    That's a good price for the very desirable short scale S1 and power supplies are available from Alembic (but I would look for a used one first). pierreyves Senior Member Username: pierreyves Post Number: 581 Registered: 11-2006 Posted on Sunday, May 02, 2010 - 8:10 pm:    Hi, if you want, I have a power supply DS5 from 1982 wich is at Alembic factory.

I realize that Bill asked first, so he'd have first dibs, of course, but just in case. I really need it for that Series II Guitar I just bought from Josh, and I really need a lot of parts. Any help any of you guys could give me would be great!!! Thanks!!! Frank
