Title: Amazing 2001 Burled Maple Top, Long Scale Series 1, 4 string
Post by: Deltaphoenix on August 05, 2020, 08:12:56 AM

I have a great 2001 Series 1 bass that I got from Chicago Music Exchange relatively recently

This listing has specs and pics: https://reverb.com/ca/item/21803832-alembic-series-i-burled-maple-2001-s565

I love this bass - I made a decision that helps my whole studio out. I have a lot of nice gear (Synths, basses, etc) but have just not spent much on "infrastructure" - good cables, patch bays, good audio interface, better mixer and some key outboard gear, etc. This makes having nice gear less of a factor (besides my personal enjoyment).

I paid $9k, I would take $7700 after PayPal fees + exact shipping (in other words, I need to net $7700).

Note - I would take a couple of payments if the timeline isn't crazy and communication is solid.

My self imposed bass buying ban is in place but if you have a high resolution picture of the full length if the bass i would love to get a copy to frame for my studio.

I agree, this bass is eye (and ear) candy for sure!

IDK if the pics from the Reverb link are high def (I doubt it) - Chciago music exchange took those pics and they are fantastic pictures.  :'(

Great price here; this is the Holy Grail for many bassists.

Recording/Studio gear
Quality Rack FX
Synths
