far amount of hokum in the discription.  "producer switch" does nothing according to google. no case.  priced about right (imho ymmv etc. & so forth).  good luck to all!

We had a bit of a discussion about this switch a while back when another Club Member had this bass. It's evidently been sold again, maybe a couple times. I was thinking it was in Florida. It was in Virginia for a hot minute too. Let me see if I can find the threads... hang on...

Here's a troubleshooting thread on that one- https://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=27049.0 (https://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=27049.0)

More in the serial number lookup thread on it- https://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=27159.msg279522#msg279522 (https://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=27159.msg279522#msg279522)


If I looked long enough I'd find the sale thread too, but duzzit matter?

Nice looking bass!

indeed.  i forgot to add that part.  however, i retract the comment about priced about right.  that control cavity definitely needs to be checked out before the cash hits the table.  imho.
