Title: AC76 405 Series 2 [still for sale]
Post by: afrobeat_fool on November 25, 2015, 09:46:24 AM
This is a pretty sad day. The accumulation of a very tough year with massive medical bills. This is one of the Zebrawood instruments that is so desirable. This bass is immaculate. OHSC. Cable. No Box, unless you want to purchase my DS 5R as well. It is located in Portland Oregon. My contact info is nickmiesle@gmail.com (http://mailto:nickmiesle@gmail.com).  This is the Holy Grail of Alembics. I am not giving this away, so please contact me for price.
 
It is described here http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/108937.html?1323876154 (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=8285)
 
Thanks for looking, Nick

Nick,  
 
I am sorry to hear of this. I hope things get better this coming year.  
 
FYI, I have worked for both the major health care not-for-profits and know that if you talk to them, they will often write off large amounts on their bills. They factor in uncompensated care in the huge charges they dish out.

Peace,
Pete

If it is Legacy or Providence they often cut folks a break who are struggling. I hear Kaiser is OK too, I think. They 'pad' the bills knowing insurance companys will slash what they will pay out anyway. You have to maybe talk to the right person. You can also try going through the Hospital Foundations or the Pastoral Services dept as well. They can sometimes exert influence.
 
Best to you!

Nick, sorry to hear that you are going through a rough patch.  Hopefully, things will improve in the new year.  When it comes down to it, health is more important than anything.  Get better and come on down for next year's NorCal gathering.
 
Bill, tgo

I've thought it over some more, and maybe a pawning is the answer, at the right price.  Once you are back on your feet, pay the principle and claim yer bass.  Give it some thought and contact me if it seems a feasible alternative to never seeing yer bass again.

Price reduced to what?  eBay is at lease up front on everything, so it does afford some advantages in the end.  Maybe Todd will end this and happy camping will ensue . . .
