Good looking Distillate on Reverb. Including optimistic pricing!

"Optimistic" pricing has become a common feature of used Alembic products...

I'm having abstract thoughts... this appreciation, artificial bubble or not from the online marketplace, is a real issue. I need to call my insurance lady and adjust the replacement price about 3×.

And I may possibly have hire some muscle to escort me and my Alembics to some of these sketchy joints we play in... wonder if my nephew needs a Summer job roughing-up riff-raff?

If I am not mistaken, full replacement value of this bass in topic is up and above slightly over $8,000 USD. I insure my Alembic instruments at full replacement value. :)
