It is with great reservations that I offer up my 1986 Alembic Persuader. I've had it for about 5 years, but the time has come for another to enjoy it. It features two jazz pickups and a crown headstock. Here is the information Mica provided me with regarding it: 86P3842 PMB4 Persuader bass top: Walnut body: Mahogany through body neck: 3-piece Maple, 32" medium scale fingerboard: Ebony with pearloid oval inlays pickups: 2 Alembic JZ controls: volume x2, filter, mono output birthday: January 7, 1986 originally made for: Sound City The original owner was in Louisiana. It was registered to a second owner in TX in 2004. I got it from a guy in Idaho in 2007, and it now resides in Virginia. Somewhere along the way someone removed a volume pot and added a blend knob, but it was done correctly with Alembic parts. It has the usual wear for it's age. I would like to get $2500, but all offers will be considered. Includes case.

I've recieved a few requests for additional pictures. The neck is in great shape, great action and the electronics work perfectly. I use flats so the frets are in great shape as well. There are a few minor dings from gigging, and a small amount of brass tarnishing but otherwise beautiful for its age.
