Title: Listing of Alembic selling prices?
Post by: fmm on August 08, 2009, 01:39:47 PM: Is anyone maintaining a list of what Alembics have been selling for?

I'm thinking of selling my Series I 4 string.

It looks to be a 34 scale, that hurts a little
I'd say $3500 for a quick sale, $4000 if you have time to wait.
(quick = 2-4 weeks, wait = couple months)
The market is not very good right now for high end basses.
If you can wait, prices usually climb as it gets closer to Christmas.
