Just spotted this. Given where he is based isn't he concerned with the real "realistic world view" issue of South West Water? ....and bagsy not me that has to tell him about micro plastic in his testicles.

I always use Basschat first but as a guide to future sellers of these basses re pricing I got £325 for this on Reverb. I bought this because I liked the sound, the build quality, the quality comoponents (Hipshot ultralite tuners, Omega bridge), and the looks; but its a 35 inch scale which doesn't suit the post surgery limitations of my left shoulder so I'm afraid its got to go. Weight on our new sophisticated bathroom scales is 4.4 Kg and it has 0% subcutaneous and visceral fat!. It looks as new. Happy to post at buyers expense and risk, or meet up in London, or deliver/meet up within a reasonable driving radius. There's no case or gig bag but I would post well packaged in a box. I'd prefer a sale but might go for trades (34" scale or less) with cash if required.

Thank you for that clarification! I can't see any external switches so if it has that capability it must be inside. The following from Uncle Google seems to suggest it can be tweaked inside the casing for multiple international voltage conventions: http://www.alembic.com/support/SVC_F1X_voltage.html -

As part of the clearout up for grabs next is this BBE BMax-T pre amp. Like the Alembic I've also put up for sale I just don't use it any more. The Alembic is a really premium preamp but this is no slouch either. Its made in the USA with "mil spec" components, and has a warm punchy sound. It has a control called 'Sonic Maxixmizer' for which I have never seen an explanation I could get my head around but you can hear it definitely fattens up the sound in a way that I liked. Although I generally favoured the Alembic I did use this on many occasions instead and if you want a good preamp for a lot less money this is a great choice. It has spent its life in a flight case and I would describe the condition as excellent with but there could be perhaps the faintest of surface blemishes here or there from flight case insertion or removal. Several years ago I enquired with BBE in the US regarding the appropriate foot switch it would need to use the switching function and they sent one to me for free!! If I can find that it will be included in the sale. Collection or meet up in London/East Sussex/West Kent. I could post but would need to research the cost. Racked with the Alembic F-1X

Last price drop. If it doesn't sell soon I'll hook it up to a lightweight power amp and just sound great myself. The clearout continues... Surely one of the best preamps around, I've had this a number of years but just not used it recently. Its never missed a beat and is in very good cosmetic condition apart from the left hand (as you look at the front panel) mounting flange which was slightly bent by the previous owner. It doesn't affect the integrity of the casing or mounting and is barely noticeable particulalrly in a flight case which is where I have kept it since I bought it. There are also a few extremely minor surface abrasions on top/bottom. ...or you can get a new one for 2,790 Euros (today = £2,423.27) from https://www.station-musicshop.de/epages/64398533.sf/en_GB/?ObjectID=50587199. I know! I'm robbing myself! Why not take advantage of my stupidity for an early Christmas present? Free power lead with every purchase. Collection or meet up in London/East Sussex/West Kent. Postage an option but would need to find out cost. Nestling up to my BBE BMax T which will also be up for sale:
