Vipa Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Here we are again, Let's give this another try! Still for sale, still gorgeous and a little cheaper to help with the post Christmas lack of pennies! Due to the arrival of a new baby and the subsequent need for space and cash I am cutting my equipment collection right back! My rig is for sale (see amps and cabs) as are my Alembic and Status basses! I need to cut back to something a little more down to earth untill the finances are back to normal!!! Anyhoo this ad is for my as new, little used (bought more to look at!) Alembic Orion 4 string with book matched walnut front and back... stunning in looks, sound, quality and playability! I will be putting her on Ebay over the next couple of days at a fixed price but thought I'd throw it open to Basschatters before I do.

Any inspection is welcomed and it will be supplied with a semi rigid case (not an original Alembic case) The bass is registered with Alembic and you can see details of it on the Alembic website in the owners club. If you are interested please either email me at [email protected] or phone me on 07866 741098. Please don't PM me as it could be ages before I get it. Cheers Paul Edited January 18, 2008 by Vipa
Dread Bass Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 alembic basses are the championis i would love another but you dont see many second hand lefties. you dont see that many second hand cause noone wants to sell theirs so someone should take advantage of this and buy this fine bass.
jakenewmanbass Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 great bass have played one in tonbridge masses of tone variation with the filters. If it was a fretless I would being driving to your house now. best of luck with the sale Jake
Wil Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 Does this have the filter preamp, or is it bass/treble like on the Epic?

The tone filters only come on the series 1 & 2 level basses which sad to say would cost substantially more than £950..... 2.5k anywhere to 25k You have Bass, Treble, Blend and master volume Cheers Paul
Dread Bass Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 hey watch it or i wont say anything else nice about your bass i like my weird looking epic haha

WishICouldWalk Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 I'm a staunch 70s Jazz fan, but I have to say, that's quite foxy.
