I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE LOOK OF THIS PIECE OF ART AND PURCHASED IT WHILE I WAS IN CALIFORNIA ON A BUSINESS TRIP WITHOUT EVER PLAYING A BASS. UNFORTUNATELY, ITS TOO ADVANCE FOR A BEGINNER AND NOW I'M THINKING OF PARTING WITH MY BASS FOR A HIGH END 4 STRING.
MY LOCAL GUITAR SHOP TOLD ME THIS BASS HAS BEEN EXCEPTIONALLY WELL KEPT AND SOUNDS GREAT. THE WOOD IS IN PRESTINE CONDITION (NO SCRATCHES, DINGS OR NICKS ANYWHERE ON THE BASS). ALEMBIC INFORMED ME THAT IT IS VERY RARE TO HAVE A 6 STRING BASS IN THIS MODEL AND IF I WOULD HAVE ALEMBIC BUILD A NEW BASS WITH THE SAME SPECS IT WOULD COST WELL OVER $6,000.
THE SERIAL NUMBER IS 87S4552. THE SPECS: THE HEAD IS A FLAME KOA. THE BODY IS MAHOGANY. THE NECK IS MAPLE PURPLE HEART. THE FRETS ARE EBONY. IT IS A 32 MEDIUM SCALE BASS. THIS SPOILER IS NOT ONLY UNIQUE, BUT HAS MORE DESIGN FEATURES THAN OTHER GUITARS PRICED IN ITS RANGE AND ABOVE.
