Hi, This is just to show my new girlfriend. Does anyone know how to get some more info about it? It's serial # is 02MJ12909 USA. BTW: Why are there so many Dutch Alembic fans? O yes, Wilfred, is het nog gelukt met de verkoop? Cheers, Cor.  | ||

Hai Cor, niet slecht, helemaal niet slecht! Typisch gevalletje van de aanhouder wint op Marktplaats? That's one great bass you've got there! My little blonde Series I has mysteriously 'morphed' into a Glockenklang 'The Passenger' combo I'm hoping to pick up at Edwin's store this or next week, thanks for asking! If you want to know all about her (BTW: she's a 2002 Coco Bolo topped Mark King Standard with some very tasty upgrades), you could post an info request topic in the 'Owning an Alembic' section. Based on the serial# Mica or Val will eventually provide you with all the info that could be found about her in the 'A-files'... Wilfred | ||

Why are there so many Dutch Alembic fans? It must be the inherent common sense and open minded-ness that pervades that section of the world!!! Beautiful instrument and welcome! John Paul | ||

Beautiful bass Cor, love those Mark Kings. I have one on my wish list. Yeah we're the only self help group that encourages each others addictions. There are a lot of Dutch here and New Englanders it seems. There must be a connection. Wasn't New York originally New Amsterdam? Sam | ||

Hi everybody, Thanks for the overwhelming encouragements. Much appreciated. Yes Sam, it's even said that our ancestors sold New York for a box of apples (how clever...). B.t.w., Wilfred, I imported this bass from England, not from 'Marktplaats'. Kind regards, Cor. | ||

Hi Cor, Ziet er fantastisch uit! Not sure about the apples though, I think they traded New Amsterdam for Suriname. Yeah, our forefathers sure knew a thing or two about business opportunities - right. | ||

Hey Cor, So you finally got your Alembic. It took some time but you got it. It's a real beauty. Must be a dream to play. I hope you will have a lot of fun with it. Did Paul ask you about more pictures already? Hmmm? The story about New Amsterdam (Manhattan) is a bit different though and a bit longer. Manfred | ||
