Title: 1980 Series 1
Post by: 2400wattman on July 20, 2007, 01:58:08 PM

My S1 is up for sale at the Low End Bass shop in Murfreesboro,Tn. www.thelowend.net (http://www.thelowend.net). It states in the description that there is no power supply but there is, it's the good ol' Blue Box. Also, I installed threaded inserts on all brass plates, and did a nice job if I don't say so myself. It's actually pretty easy.

That thing looks beautiful! Is that a rosewood top?

This has a Vermillion top and back. This thing seemed to have more natural low end than my '89 Series 2. Need to sell it though to pay for that '89 S2, so.......any takers?

Adam -  
 
I've been toying with the idea of an S1, so this is probably premature, but drop me a line with a price range at my office email:  jterry@mail.cox.smu.edu (mailto:jterry@mail.cox.smu.edu).
 
Sorry I missed you in Dallas recently.  Hopefully we can meet face to face sometime soon.

Anybody interested in this bass? I'm selling it for $3600 including shipping to the lower 48. Includes OHSC, DS-5 power supply, and two 5-pin cables. E-mail me at my profile address if you're interested. I bought it from The Low End and 2400wattman in August, but it has been the cause of too much tension between me and my wife so the bass has to go. PayPal only please.

Ah Sir David -  
 
Any plans to head south to Dallas?  When I get the S1, we definitely need to round up the crew again, including you and Jorge.  
 
I'm very excited about getting the new (to me) bass!

John , a Dallas meeting sounds good to me, maybe we need to start a new thread, It would be neat to snag a few more people, I'm game for any time and I think we can beat the west coast, I'm thinking we can set the bar at about 25 Alembic's
