Thanks guys.
Believers we are. And this new orion sure made a baritone belivere out of me. I play mostly bass. and from time to time get to play a little guitar. The longer scale of the baritone is the best cross over insturment.
Sick no, just in love.

Thanks Darrell for your vote.
I think this matter would have to be brought up with the elders.

awesome tribe!  now that's my idea of 'family values'!
 
your bari is one of the hottest instruments i've ever seen:  perfect proportions, the orion body shape is very seductive, and the amberburst quilted maple is beautiful.  does it have a mahogany core?
 
i grew up in new jersey; where is hamilton?

Marc,  
 
Thanks i think so to I love all my Alembics for different reasons, but this baritone Orion is the best. From a bass players point of view it makes playing guitar fun. Yes the core is mahogany.  
 
Hamilton is one town north of Trenton.  
 
Barnes,  
As far as catching up to Sr. Rami, I have a long way to go. He is no dought the Alembic collection KING.  
 
Doug
