Very nice Toshiaki. By the way, what's the album to the left of 3rd fret? The one with the steinberger.

Could be a Jamaladeen Tacuma CD?
 
Check him out on (Jamaladeen Tacuma & Cornell Rochester meet the) Podium Trio Live in K?ln. Be prepared to get the cobwebs blown out of your ears.

Good call Adriaan. Looked him up on the Tower records website. The album is Dreamscape. Think I might excercise my credit card.

Checked the web for news stories and the bancruptcy articles date from feb 2004. I've ordered from them in the last 5 months ok.
 
edit. I'm finding news from this month now! Ho Hum, looks like a trip into Edinburgh to check out the record stores.

p.s. sorry for the hijack. It's still a beautiful bass ;-)

Thanks for posting that one To_81_0190! I saw it on your website - urayamashii! I would love to have an Alembic 8-string - I used to have a Tune, and I have a Rickenbacker 4003S/8. Maybe someday...
