molan Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Wow - just downloaded the 68MB folder of images. This is a seriously nice looking bass. Looks surprisingly large bodied - How wide is it across the widest part of the body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsixties Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hi Molan, thanks for the downloading. 37 cm of extremely well balanced body in the widest part, a little less than a Gibson EB-2 or a Gretsh hollowbody. The pictures are not bad at all but watching this bass live is a real experience. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit that I've always thought these bodies might not balance that well but I guess the overall size plus the 32" scale mean the proportions work pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsixties Posted January 28, 2010 Author Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Thank you Shaggy. Indeed it's more than beautiful and even it's an important amount of money placing an order in the Alembic site for this same bass will result in a final quote of almost three times my asking price.

jsixties Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 Definitely withdrawn folks. Playing this morning this bad boy for about an hour had been enough to know I don't want to part with it at any price. Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
