lafrite Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 (edited) [b][font=Arial][size=4]For sale my beloved Alembic serie 1 bass from 1978. The “Stradivarius” of bass guitar [/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]The deepest and most subtle bass sound(s) I have ever heared. [/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]This one is a particular good one, perfectly set up with a very low action for a very fast playing.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]Normal signs of ware for a 34 years old instrument with a very nice patina, I particulary like the beautifull wood color.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]Medium scale, which is Mark King’s favorite configuration as long scale is unconfortable to play in a stand up position for most of people.[/size][/font][/b] [font=Arial][b]It's the real Alembic without any comparaison with a signature model which I don't like.[/b][/font] [b][font=Arial][size=4]I need £2900 very best price.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]I live in Paris but I come very often in London.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]Here is my cell in case : +33 6 63113651[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]Cheers[/size][/font][/b] Edited December 29, 2012 by lafrite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I can happily vouch for this gent, having previously done business together on a fretless Wal. Lafrite (aka Jean-Baptiste) is a decent guy who has a good eye for a classy bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
