Interesting, as the Series II on Florida CL I posted below is also shown as having the same owner. The EBay auction is listed as being from Colorado. Dave |

Holy... This is one of the earlier Alembics I occasionally see in my dreams. I wish I had the forethought to sell half a dozen guitars last week, : ) Elwood |

One can hardly blame you for wanting to hang on to that most significant and beautiful instrument. |

Allen, seller’s remorse before it was too late is a good thing. Your bass has incredible mojo, glad that you will continue to enjoy it. Art |

That is one bass that haunts me after looking at the showcase a few weeks ago. If that was an old Charles Daly double it would be priced at $30000. Metal work like that is rare to say the least. Dan |

NO kidding Dan. I am tempted on this one but I think I have to CONTROL my urge to reach out and offer a home for this beauty. I do hope she stays around our scene here. Such a sweety! |
