Back around 1979-1980, I'm pretty sure there was an Alembic mandolin high on the wall at Stars Guitars, the famous guitar repair shop on Folsom in San Francisco across the street from the Automatt.

I remember that place. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 7186 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 - 1:01 pm:    I'll have to ask about the mandolin, but I know there were a few electric violas. Sadly, I don't have any photos of these, but I've seen files for for of them so far. tmoney61092 Senior Member Username: tmoney61092 Post Number: 648 Registered: 9-2008 Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 - 7:53 pm:    i'd be in heaven if i could have an Alembic mandolin(octave mandolin, mandocello, doesn't matter!) is there any way to gauge a price of what it would cost? ~Taylor dawgwood9 New Username: dawgwood9 Post Number: 2 Registered: 4-2011 Posted on Sunday, April 24, 2011 - 9:36 am:    Hi! So I've been the proud owner of one of the Stars Guitars mandocellos for about 15 years. (It is currently looking for a new home - see the link in the seen on ebay part of the forum). More importantly though, you can find a bunch of photos I recently took of my instrument here: http://photobucket.com/starsguitarsmando A truly amazing instrument. dfung60 Senior Member Username: dfung60 Post Number: 493 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Tuesday, May 03, 2011 - 11:08 am:    Wow, that's sweeeeeeettt!
