I am starting basically with a clean slate, and a vague idea of the sound I am going for. Any help in designing my dream bass would be appreciated. ambientbass New Username: ambientbass Post Number: 8 Registered: 12-2005 Posted on Tuesday, December 20, 2005 - 2:58 pm:    I suppose I should clarify a little, or this thread will never get anywhere. The ideal bass tone I have in mind is a growly, warm tone similar to Geddy Lee's tone in the early years of Rush. I also like the look of the Exploiter body-style, but I dont know any details about electronics or wood-types. (also, i've never played an alembic before, so i'm just going by looks and guess-work) valvil Moderator Username: valvil Post Number: 807 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Wednesday, December 21, 2005 - 4:01 pm:    Hello Timmy, e-mail me your phone number at valentino@alembic.com and I'll call you and we can talk about your ideas.
