After watching pictures of other Alembics for quite a while, I think itīs time to share my own.

Iīve bought my Spoiler in 1993 here in Germany, it was 2nd-hand, but it was looking like new - and on the whole it still does today!
At this time I didnīt knew anything about Alembic at all, I just was so fascinated so I had to buy this bass (in the meantime Iīve managed to work against my lack of knowledge...).

Maybe thatīs interesting for those who think, Alembics are not made for playing hard and heavy music! ;)

Nice collection. I have to ask,what is the bass on the far right.It has a familiar shape to another Alembic called a Valentino II.

Thanks for the nice words! The white bass is a self-creation, I made it myself.
