goblin Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 Yeah they're very busy, my Mako Elite 5 custom is constructed now, and now needs to settle and have it's final setup... it's been 12 months so far, but when you order it's made very clear that there's a wait. I have absolutely no issue with this though and can't wait for its arrival Quote

How long till it's ready then? Quote

I spoke to Chris earlier as he was asking me about cases, and he said it should be going for final setup this week... so not long at all! 1 Quote

CobiaMatt Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 Deffo worth the wait, Iv had 3 all being a year and I can say its 100% worth the wait. Quote
MikanHannille Posted February 26, 2019 Posted February 26, 2019 Some of you might have already seen this today. But here it is again. An update on my Cobia 5. 2 Quote
Crawford13 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Just realised that I hasn’t put up a post with my completed 4 string. Also included is a picture of both of my Alpher. All I have to say it if you are thinking of getting an Alpher stop thinking and start speaking to them! 3 Quote

There is a very long story attached but basically the (honestly a bit rubbish) darker blue was a refinish. Chris at Alpher took the instrument back from the second owner of the bass and completely renovated it back to its original state and its now good as new in its original crazyburl (buckeye burl impregnated with coloured resins) finish! I'm now the third owner and hope to finally give it the home it deserves! Its completely stunning in the flesh, pictures will never do it justice...
