Pete Academy Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Please stop advertising Alembics!!! My credit card is calling...
jsixties Posted January 24, 2010 Author Posted January 24, 2010 A credit card on fire and a high end Alembic are always a recurrent couple!
molan Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Wow - just downloaded the 68MB folder of images. This is a seriously nice looking bass. Looks surprisingly large bodied - How wide is it across the widest part of the body?
jsixties Posted January 24, 2010 Author Posted January 24, 2010 Hi Molan, thanks for the downloading. 37 cm of extremely well balanced body in the widest part, a little less than a Gibson EB-2 or a Gretsh hollowbody. The pictures are not bad at all but watching this bass live is a real experience. ^_^

I must admit that I've always thought these bodies might not balance that well but I guess the overall size plus the 32" scale mean the proportions work pretty well
jsixties Posted January 28, 2010 Author Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Thank you Shaggy. Indeed it's more than beautiful and even it's an important amount of money placing an order in the Alembic site for this same bass will result in a final quote of almost three times my asking price.

jsixties Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 Definitely withdrawn folks. Playing this morning this bad boy for about an hour had been enough to know I don't want to part with it at any price. Thanks a lot.

jsixties Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 This is what you get when playing hard.
Chris2112 Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 I just can't get over how awesome this bass is - pretty much my dream Alembic!
