Alembic serie 1 from 1978 (SOLD)

[lafrite]

[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]

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

[lafrite]

Thank you very much Clarky that's very kind.
We both made the same mistake of selling it, what a great freltess, I miss it very much...

Good luck with the sale !

Beautiful.......koa facings?

I'm lucky enough to own a '76 series 1 (long scale, birds-eye maple top) - and there is just nothing that comes close to them

Bump for a lovely vintage 'bic
