Post by: undertone on November 01, 2012, 01:32:23 PM

Hi. I'm looking for an Alembic Essence 5 string (fretted).  One just went for $2100 here including shipping within lower 48 (also had the q-switch & side LEDs).  If you're looking to sell one, please let me know. Regards.

I have A 2004 buckeye burl Essence 5 string, mint, never played out, with case, added Q switch, no leds.
2500.00, you pay shipping. Photos on request. (Think there are some on here someplace, but I cannot access my history for some odd reason. Give a search and see if you can find them!)

What country do you live in and how will you pay? Sending a bass overseas has to be carefully thought out.
Thank you.

ruwanpm, I know how to call you on the telephone, but thank you for the short instructions.
 
How will you pay for this bass? Check? PayPal? Credit card?
I expect all money in my hand before I send a bass overseas. Will you risk sending me all of the money up front?
This is no small issue. Please talk to me in this forum. Please answer my questions.

Hi vinymelanio,
Some photos at the link above. I can get more photos posted later this evening, but these photos are representative. How do you suggest the sale proceed so we are both secured?

My father has a PayPal account, I think that is a good payment form, agree?  
 
I would like to see more detailed pictures, headstock, back of body, since that is a expensive instrument.  
 
If you don't want to post this pictures, you can send to my e-mail.
 
The bass is in perfect overall condition?
 
If you agree with the payment form send me an e-mail, I will reply with my address and aditional shipping informations.
 
Thanks!

Paypal works fine. Detailed photos coming after I get off work this evening. But this is dead mint, even the case! Absolute perfect condition.
