Title: Stanley Clark Standard Buckeye Burl 4 String 4 Sale
Post by: the_joe on August 13, 2009, 05:46:52 PM

It breaks my heart to sell this. I've had this bass for 5 years, and have loved it very much. Times are tough, though. I'd say it ranks a 9.0 out of 10. there are a few small dings on the edge, but not down to the wood. It's an amazing piece of art. If you look in wood samples page of the Alembic website a picture of it was used to show the beauty of buckeye burl.  
 
I'd like to get $3000.

Beautiful bass- and the Europa electronics package makes it a very unique bass.
 
I don't think you're going to have any problem moving this bass quickly... good luck with the sale.  
 
toby

I have been looking at this club/forum as a guest for a few weeks. Two days after registration I found this beautyful instrument and even more fantastic - I will be holding it in my hands within a few weeks. It is unbelievable to me and I can't wait to touch it.

Finally I made it to pick it up, but still did not have the chance to play it.  
@Joe: thank you very much for an easy and smooth transaction.  
@ Toshiaki: HI Brother ;-), thanks for the music file. I can't wait to listen to the sound from the one I bought.
