Title: RARE VINTAGE 1982 MOONSTONE VULCAN DELUXE
Post by: kalalau_hiker on October 18, 2008, 02:00:28 PM

I had this posted on the Gear Page and members there told me I should post it here, as it is definitely more Alembic oriented in the electronics area than the vintage strat/LP type stuff that is more popular there.  I have tons of references over at TGP , as well as 100% positive feedback on ebay.  
 
it is listed here

I'll sell it for $2350 + paypal + shipping (or less for local pickup - near Philly)

those Bartolini pups are amazing, and the action is superb.
 
while different than an Alembic... it an amazing early vintage electronics milestone guitar... and I hear Henry Kaiser absolutely loves his!

Would you consider trades, or are you looking for cash only?

Carl:
 
Picking my favorite Alembic is like picking a favorite child - I love them all!  But, if you twist my arm, here goes:
 
Tone:  '76 Series I
Playability:  Further
Feel:  Further
 
Bill, tgo

SOLD - to a new friend from TGP. funny - to me this is a Stanley Clarke guitar - a multi tone option guitar , not for the trad vintage LP tone freaks.  
 
the guy buying it is going to use it for SLIDE! .. I figured it would sell to a fusion type player.  
 
thanks for all the interest and trade offers.
 
looking for that alembic in the hopefully not distant future!
Bob
