« on: October 04, 2021, 07:17:50 AM »
Hi everyone!

It's my first topic and message here.
I bought a Epic 4 from a friend, it's an awesome and unique instrument.
So, if you send me more information about,  I will be so happy with the specs.

Cheers from Brasil.

Felipe,
Welcome to the camp!
Congratulations on your purchase.  It can take sometime before the build card is pulled and all the information is available, so please be patient.  Meanwhile have fun exploring all of the beautiful tones on your new bass.

I believe that the official release of the Epic model was 1994.  1993 Epics seem to be kind of rare.  As an
owner of a '93 Epic,  I have only seen a few others in the History requests. 
The top wood on yours looks like Bubinga with a Maple accent wood.

lembic76450, your information is correct. In the Alembic's website, the official release of the Epic is 1994. but, I found some pics in the internet about this early models.
Thanks for the wood specs. Soon we have official specs.

Just waiting the specs of my lovely Epic.

Now I updgraded the tuners with Duesenberg locking tuners. And I prefer chrome tuners than gold tuners.
