mrbassman_de Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) For sale out of my collection: Alembic Rogue 5 Superb Walnut Top Specs: Superb Walnut Top Mahogany Body Maple Neck Ebony Board Oval Inlays 34 scale Brass Hardware 18mm spacing at bridge Rogue Electronics Weight about 4,5kg / 10 lbs OHSC This Alembic is wonderful balanced on the strap and sounds powerful with a huge and fat attack, yet providing a solid blues and rock bottom which is not common for this brand. The bass is currently strung with E-C but originally built for B-G - it works perfectly with both setups. Action is very low, the neck is a little chunky and P-Bass like - also not common for Alembics in general. OHSC (black rectangle hardcase with body form cut) is included. The brass hardware is still in top condition, only minimal fading (which could be buffed again I believe), some minor dings here and there, a 2cm scratch on the top above the pickups is shown in the pics. Otherwise the bass is in perfect shape, including frets and truss rod of course. It is a joy to play and to hear. I owned several Alembics before and this is the last and very best of them. No issues with this bass, I'm just focussing on other brands. SOLD Edited March 19, 2015 by mrbassman_de Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzyvee Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Tasty and not a model that you see on sale very often. There seems to have been a lot of buying and selling activity on alembics over the last year. Maybe more used models are coming into the market at the right price for bass players who are interested in trying them out to acquire. All the best with the sale. I've never played one that I didn't like the sound of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazed Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) There are far too many high end bass bargains on here at the moment. This Alembic is right up there on my (ever growing) personal wish list. Stunning top. Perfect spacing. I imagine it sounds mighty. I might be in trouble...
