Maybe eventually I will get it back to the original finish. The black looks good and it was well done. BTW, there was nothing wrong with the bridge pickup as I suspected. Just needed a stereo cord hooked up.😀
Nice!! Glad the gamble paid off, congrats!
Yeah, every time a listing is selling an Alembic Series 1 or 2 and says the bridge pickup "isn't working", I always figure it's at least a 50% chance that they're just not familiar with the stereo cable. It's tempting to take the risk, since sellers usually knock the price down because of this! I once bought an instrument where the bridge pickup really was dead, though
, so it doesn't always work out!
