While im savin for my custom built alembic, ive been thinkin about updating my schecter bass with some alembic electronics. How much would it run to build a control set-up which offers,
1 master volume
1 filter control
1 3-way q switch
1 bass knob
and 1 treble knob,
and a pickup selector, i hate wasting your time, but i cant help it, i gotta have something of alembic!!! thanks, trac

I know how you feel , I played fake alembics for years, until I got my Persuader in 1986, then 2002 I got a MK signature deluxe ,,,I know how you feel .Do what you have to do until you get it .

For the pickup selector, are you looking for a toggle or roarty switch? Would you consider a pan/blend control?

Your specifications will require my dad's time, since we don't offer any off the shelf models with filters and bass and treble controls.

My dad's time is booked solid until May. I can arrange an appointment for this job to get completed then. If you're in a hurry, we'll have to get something ogether from a standard set for you that won't require custom wiring. A complete set of pickups and controls with the functions you describe will be at least $935.

What shape are the pickups? You can post a picture of the bass on this thread. Also, how many existing holes are on the bass and is the jack front or side mounted?

Not a problem, just gotta find the digital cam, as for the electronics, whats all included on a standard set of electronics? Pricing is what I should be asking... Ive always liked the 20th ann.electronics. The only thing that i have of alembic is 1 axy pickup with a volume and filter that i bought used on the internet, can something be added to this, like another p/up , volume and filter?
