Before I could leave late in the morning Tuesday to run my errands a noisy brown truck pulls up bearing gifts. I knew it was coming today I just did'nt know when, and certainly not this early. I was in a rush to get my things done.....but they could wait a little longer. Lugged the BIG BOX downstairs and proceded to unpack this beast. This beautiful bass was strung with flats(I'm a round wound guy) and I was interested to try them out on an Alembic. It of course sounded very good, but these were'nt my cup of tea..at least on a bass like this. Fast forward a few hours. Slapped some stainless baby's on there lit up the L.E.D's and the bass truly came to life. To me flats just don't do these basses justice. I can really hear what the filters are doing and with those flats it was very diminished. Well enough yapping here it is       (Message edited by mica on May 23, 2007) | ||

That is some fantastic walnut, and it looks like there's some flame in the neck, too. Totally sweet! | ||

Robert, It's a 5 pin XLR for hooking up the instrument to the power supply/output module. Series instruments run at a higher voltage, hence the power supply. This also has separate outputs for the pickups (if you only use the 'bass' output, it carries both combined). | ||
