I like this configuration. It makes sense to me from various angles of thought. I am intrigued by such innovation.

Thats all Mica and the wonderful folks in the clan. This was the first knock-up and it looked good to me. I just have to remember to make sure both volumes are down before switching basses! The thought actually came to me because I had a spare pickup and wanted to use it. The bass was already ordered and I asked Mica if we could put it in the middle and Ron said it could be done. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

I had thought the switch location at the bottom by the mid pup controls was its Q switch not an LED switch. I guess with all that black you need runway lights.

C'est la vie! Back to spray again I'm told. Recovering from lapro hernia surgery so I'm surfin' the web and holding off the gas gearwise and metabolic. So while I wait I'm debating what to drop my Alembic HSS set into. No one will sell me an unloaded axe new. Gots ta find me a good strat, rosewood board with a good whammy. Oh well. I do get to go to Level 42 on Friday VIP and I'm bringing a harpist so that something new and interesting.

Danno, if you're willing to drop a good bit of money, go on warmoth.com and you can buy strat bodies(as well as any shape you want, even an Alembic Tribute!) and you can even customize the body to look how you want it, just thought i'd tell you, get better soon!

Danno, get well Soon, Bro! How's that Fretless 7 treating you, eh? I'm LOVING the Series II Six, it's the best bass I've ever owned, hands down! I'd love to hear that 10 string, live! We're headed to NYC soon to play a few shows- Uncle Mike's and hopefully MEANY Fest. Maybe things will coincide and we can hook up- that will be in the beginning of October, I believe...

Doc gave the green light to lift again so its back to the gym and qigong. And while I wait I order 8 more Kay mugs in case I have company and want all the mugs to match, I ordered 10 initially and me dad gave some to me siblings as a memory of Mom. Oh and I ordered a Status Kingbass Black Beauty 5 with side leds. Gas kicks my ass every time. I imagine they will both hit my wallet around the same time around Christmas. Can't take it with you. Besides with all the anger over teachers pensions, I may not have one in 15-20 years. It will certainly keep me from overeating. So if anyone is looking for some basses I need to make room. Schector 5 Elite, Hamer 12 (Korean), Warwick Dolphin Pro 8 with leds and Stambaugh 4 with double dragon inlay, signature guts and double whammy. I think thats it. Somebody stop me before I spend again!

So you would prefer I don't post on my FTC instrument thread. Interesting. Perhaps Mica can close it and just send me updates via email. What say you Moder Dave and crew?

Danno,
I'm sure Mario was trying to help save your wallet. Maybe blocking Ebay and Craigslist would be more economical. Either way, you gotta stay on your FTC and in the club. You're the leader of the black beauty club (I don't think I mean the pony) :-)

Oh, Danno, you misunderstood me so bad.
I was just trying to make fun or be part of what I thought to be a joke.
May be this is one of those problems about bad translation, but I swear that I wasn't REALLY trying to stop your g.a.s.

Wow, next time I'll just read others FTC, sorry

*(Mike, thanks trying to cool things down)

Bump2

Would surely love to see U use this one asap, tho me is afraid it has to be trough tha YouTube channel... :-(

I'm sure some desperate Alembic addicts (f.i. poor Taylor boy, of course Danno and the Spoiler dude) are dying (actually dying) to see some notorious (for beauty) Alembic finish pictures of this monsterbass.

Only one person on earth can save 'em, picture goddess Mica haz thee power!

Sit tight bro, I know were gonna make it! :-)

If the fates allow, we will see what we can see. Until then we will be content. Just changed strings on the Europa 5 and it feels and sounds like a new baby. Tis a blessing, new strings. Bless us everyone!
