Title: Early, small body Series I bass wanted
Post by: toddharris on September 07, 2015, 10:53:32 AM

Hi, I am looking to purchase or possibly trade for an early, original condition small bodied, brown pickup, 1973 or 1974 Series I bass.  I do have a fantastic SC Sig Dlx I might consider in trade, but prefer to purchase outright Please write and let me know if you are thinking of selling.  I'm gigging my 73-33 exclusively now.  Best regards, Todd

Todd, if you'd like to sell the SC SIG DELUXE please send me some pics and an asking price, since I am in the market for that model of Alembic. If you have interest, I'm going to sell my '90 Kubicki Factor to subsidize my new purchase.

Here is the thread on my SC sig deluxe. Killer bass that was built for Tom Blankenship, bassist for My Morning Jacket.

That one is standard size body and full scale (34). It's a beauty though.
