Love at first sight, I have always wanted one, I had paid for it in the first 3 minutes, and the guy didn't even want to let me plug it in to give it a feel.God what an amazing sound. I've been playing jazz basses for all this time and been blind to the series 1 short scale. I had to pull the truss rod cover. Now to find the proper amp rig to match the bass. 81-1832usa palembic Senior Member Username: palembic Post Number: 680 Registered: 9-2002 Posted on Monday, October 27, 2003 - 11:16 pm:    Very Nice Sigurd. BTW, welcome to this club. It always amazes me how many Alembic/Jazz-bass players there are. Likewise for me! If you allow me a step-up to higher tonal ranges, please tell me what the nice jazz-guitar is peeping around the corner? Paul the bad one Don't be afraid, in a couple of moments there will be a gang of other dudes coming in and yelling "welcome", it is absolutely normal: fine instruments are owned by fine people! We have loads of them here (oh ...and fine instruments too!!! LOL) mattheus Member Username: mattheus Post Number: 62 Registered: 5-2003 Posted on Monday, October 27, 2003 - 11:51 pm:    My, my, my........ siggytx New Username: siggytx Post Number: 2 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Tuesday, October 28, 2003 - 5:49 am:    That would be a Blonde Johnny Smith in the background 73 that is a true love as well. dela217 Advanced Member Username: dela217 Post Number: 206 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Tuesday, October 28, 2003 - 7:12 am:    I usually go to that Dallas show too. It is a good thing I didn't go! I would have been tempted too. I have been trying to keep myself from buying more basses. In fact, lately I have been selling off some. Good find!! bishopqdog Junior Username: bishopqdog Post Number: 45 Registered: 7-2003 Posted on Tuesday, October 28, 2003 - 11:24 am:    Lucky You! That is a handsome instrument. Really, I haven't seen an Alembic that I didn't like. I know that I'm preaching to the chior. I think in this case, its acceptable. Welcome to the gathering. allthumbs New Username: allthumbs Post Number: 2 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Friday, March 12, 2004 - 1:25 pm:    Nice find, Sigg. Mine is an '80 version just like yours.
