Title: Series II Anniversary 5 string Bass
Post by: jazzyvee on March 05, 2013, 11:06:13 PM
Hey guys, the guy I recently bought my series I Europa from in Germany is considering selling his 1999 Series II Anniversary bass. He does not want to advertise it on the net since he would get bogged down with emails from curious people and not really interested in buying it. He has offered it to me but it's the large body version which is not my taste.  He has sent me a couple of pictures and it looks like it has 3 ebony lams and burl rosewood the front and back it has a centre stripe in the hippy sandwich and a stinger but does not have the tree of life inlay that the 4 string anniversary bass has.
 
I have asked if he wanted me to put the bass up on here but he hasn't responded to the email yet so I can't really place any photo's or his contact details.  
 
I just put it out here in case there was interest I could pass on your contact details.

This is absolutely fabulous. If I ever get another Alembic (I hope my current one doesn't read this), it will be a classic shape like this. Superb.
