What is up, gentlemen.

Wanted to try out Alembics, so got this one. Didn't like it much, i'm definetely a ZON guy. Plus i can't get along with 19 mm spacing. No broadneck for me. I guess we learn all the time. ;)

Made in 1997, Alembic pickups, alembic electronics, alembic hardware.
Mahogany, with walnut and flamed maple (quite beautiful) top. 19mm spacing.

Bass was definitely used, got one chip in lacquer on front (luthier should be able to fix it), two dents on the lower edge, plus some wear and tear on the back.
(all pictured). Semi hard case included. Stringed with fresh Alembic coated strings.

Asking 1200 GBP obo.

Can record some samples if wanted.

Bass is located in Warsaw, Poland. Shipping in EU will cost around 30 GBP.
Shipping with insured UPS.

No longer for trade, and dropped price a bit.
 
Definetely something I would like to try, but I'm pretty sure I'll prefer the Dolphin 5er Broadneck.
 
Try me with your price Henry and well see. ;)
Im flexible on this one.
 
Well, the only thing I got to put in the balance would be my Reverso + cash, but since you're a 5er guy, I'm not sure it'll work out.
 
No trades im afraid, im currently sorted with basses. :(
 
Im up for a quick sale - 1000 gbp / 1350 eur + shipping. Limited time offer. :)
 
These are AWESOME Basses! I had one for a while, and it really delivered the Alembic Sound. And Ironically I just got back from Grojec, Poland. Of course we visited Warsaw, and found the city to be very Charming! Too bad I did not know of the deal then. I could try to Squeeze it into my Carry-On! I hope your Deal works out.
 
Would you care to make some soundclips ? Pleas ?
Thanks.
 
Damn, i won't be able to record much. It's packed up and waiting for courier.

Wait, i recalled i recorded something the day i got it! :D

But please, be advised, it was a quick rec before going off to work, so it's pretty terrible. :D

Thanks.
Didn't see it was on Hold. At that price, it would have been a shame not to buy it.
