Interesting, as the Series II on Florida CL I posted below is also shown as having the same owner. The EBay auction is listed as being from Colorado.

Holy...
 This is one of the earlier Alembics I occasionally see in my dreams.  
 I wish I had the forethought to sell half a dozen guitars last week,  : )

One can hardly blame you for wanting to hang on to that most significant and beautiful instrument.

Allen, seller?s remorse before it was too late is a good thing.  Your bass has incredible mojo, glad that you will continue to enjoy it. Art

That is one bass that haunts me after looking at the showcase a few weeks ago. If that was an old Charles Daly double it would be priced at $30000. Metal work like that is rare to say the least.

NO kidding Dan. I am tempted on this one but I think I have to CONTROL  my urge to reach out and offer a home for this beauty.  I do hope she stays around our scene here.   Such a sweety!

No choice but to part with this one to keep the roof over the head.
