dms Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 Hi, whilst i can see it has alembic pickups what active circuit is fitted? assuming knobs are volume, blend and one more is it a parametric sweep eq? (like on the alembic essence). Also, how old is this bass? for shipping does it come with a hard case? Thanks

BassBod Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 When I first picked up my Epic it reminded me of an 80's Aria! What an interesting bass....
noelk27 Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 While most of what jesuskno says is correct he's mistaken about these instruments being Japan only. Built either by FujiGen of Samick, this was one of three new models based on the classic SB designs built by Matsumoku, and was heavily promoted in the American, European and Asian catalogues. There are some alternative photos in the US version of the '89 catalogue featured on the Aria US website. It's likely that this example will not bear a serial number (only the the final phase of production at Samick saw serial numbers being applied to the headstock reverse), and it will be impossible to say where and when this example was produced without an original set of hang tags. Production, as jesuskno says, was limited, and the reason you don't see many of these up for sale is that anyone who's lucky enough to own one usually keeps it. It's also worth noting that a set of AXY pickups and an A/E-1 circuit would set you back $1,100, before taxes and shipping.
mikhay77 Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Yummy,this is the Aria I always wanted,shame I dont have the readies,unless some one wants to buy my Supra,lol. Having said that,I do have a set of these pups,but routed my Ibanez musician in favour of my sb to fit em, just need to paint it! Good luck with the sale
