Doesn't matter the condition, scratched to hell, broken electronics, even damaged structurally. Would appreciate something in working condition, but willing to take anything you'll let go. Can spend up to a thousand for the right one. Looking to spend around 700-800 for a working, but cosmetically beaten epic, would spend a thousand for something closer to "nice" and would spend 400-500 for something I'd need to repair before being able to play. I hope you guys have something that fits my needs that you don't need anymore. I'm happy with any wood combination, just let me know! ajdover Senior Member Username: ajdover Post Number: 935 Registered: 11-2003 Posted on Tuesday, February 15, 2011 - 7:23 pm:    I take it you are the guy on TalkBass, right?

It's a small world, and I expected some overlap, but hoping to reach more alembic owners over here.

Plays fine, but could use a refinish and maybe a fret job. Not willing to sell for a "ridiculous deal", but I'm willing to let it go. http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/75761.html?1274647197 elwoodblue Senior Member Username: elwoodblue Post Number: 1188 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Wednesday, February 16, 2011 - 7:55 pm:    That's a cool Orion mike. precarius Advanced Member Username: precarius Post Number: 329 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Wednesday, February 16, 2011 - 8:41 pm:    Mike - I e-mailed you. allyourbass New Username: allyourbass Post Number: 4 Registered: 2-2011 Posted on Friday, February 18, 2011 - 8:00 pm:    Still looking, found a couple craigslist ads for epics no where near me in excellent condition for 950. Hoping to pick it up, but it means they'd have to ship it, if they're willing Wish me luck leftzplayright New Username: leftzplayright Post Number: 2 Registered: 2-2011 Posted on Saturday, February 26, 2011 - 1:17 pm:    I have an Epic for sale.

Some car problems arose, so It'll be a couple weeks before I can buy, but I'm still in the market. Let me know if you have anything. Looking to spend about 1000-1100. mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 778 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Thursday, March 10, 2011 - 8:42 am:    Precarius got a different bass, so my Orion is still available. elwoodblue Senior Member Username: elwoodblue Post Number: 1230 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Tuesday, April 12, 2011 - 12:20 am:    Well..it's not an Epic...but it's been beat: http://cgi.ebay.com/ALEMBIC-PERSUADER-/150590214698
