This story behind this bass is pretty interesting...so here goes...there's a drummer/friend of mine who plays for one of Boise's more popular bands, The Casey Bryant Band, and he told me the bands' bass-player had to quit due to legal reasons. The drummer asked me to audition and I immediately got the gig. The funny thing is...is that the former bassist needed to sell this Alembic for legal reasons (he didn't want to part with his Schecter 5-string!!??). He wanted $900 for the Epic!!!! I'm thinking..."This baby's mine now!!!!" It's in great condition and plays beautifully!!! It's a 'lifer'! One thing though, Mica, can you reply with a little info on this particular bass? The S/N is 96W10040 USA. Thank you so much for creating a beautiful bass!!! Mike

Just got my first Alembic. An Epic and it's a beauty. I was told I am the second owner. There will not be a third unless one my kids decides to learn how to play. No photo yet, sorry. I'm putting it in my will so that it never gets into the wrong hands. |
