Thought about it. I can't think of a reason I would need two five string Alembics.

priced kinda high. good luck with that, sir.

I have a maple bodied europa which has become my main gigging bass. However i do love dark wood tops on alembics so that aesthetic really appeals to me. Most of the 5 string elans i have seen seem to have a much more slender neck width, but this one looks like a comfort neck. But i hope someone grabs it.

Actually the more I look at it, I am coming up with lots of reasons to own two 5 string Alembics..:D

I can see no reason to limit yourself to one 5 string alembic.
