I noticed a Sandberg bass on Ebay and their use of the alembic name in the blurb obviously to entice a seller. So I decided for a bit of fun let's see what methods sellers use to connect Alembic with their product in order to help the sale.

Here we go.
No1: Sandburg Bass: in excellent condition with very light use with Alembic Polish to keep it clean.

Oh nice, a microns-thick Alembic coating! And it may generate some Alembic polish sales too...

Conversly, there was a Stars Bass listed here a month or so ago. Stars bought the Alembic store years ago. I ended up buying that bass... and its a great one.

What..no gibson pick or fender strings?

I would love an Alembic that appeared from the front to be a Jazz bass...even without Sandberg polish.
