Hey Everyone, I ordered my first Alembic (Spyder 4) about a month ago from Beaver at Bass Central and am ANXIOUSLY awaiting its arrival. Mica, any chance of some pictures!? Also, can I get a heads up from you guys or Bass Central when the bass is ready to ship? Thanks for making the best instruments in the world. Jeff |

Hi Jeff, many congrats to your decision in buying a Spyder 4. I do own both a Spyder 4 and a Spyder 8 and the basses are great. I bought them both trough BC and the service of Beaver is fantastic. I play the Spyders both with my WHO tribute band WHO ARE YOU. Oliver (spyderman) |

I can only echo Spyder Ollie's comments. It's a great bass made by artisans. I own number 7 of 50, and it's the prize of my collection. Beaver and crew are the best. I bought my Spyder and Pedulla through them, and it was great. Mica - I'm glad someone is making an honest woman out of her! :-) Congrats to Mica and her husband to be. He is a lucky man for sure. I only hope he's a bass player .. think of the discounts ... Alan |

I also bought my Spyder (#17) from Beaver. They are the best. Afterwards, when I had my repairs/modifications/upgrades made to it, Mica and Val took most excellent care of me and my bass. Congrats on your purchase Jeff...it is well worth the wait. Mike |

Spyder #31 arrived Friday, and it is amazing. Pictures do not do it justice. The sound is unlike anything I have ever heard. What an amazing guitar! |
