The Hobbit thing is from another forum. Dunno where it came from--I was too busy playing my Alembic to be privy to that conversation--but it's used in reference to the short-scale LPs with the lovely low-impedence pickups such as the '69 T's selling.

Eden Travler is being held - Probably sold.
Forgot to list my Peterson strobe rack tuner.
Some of this stuff can be seen on this thread, including raw drivers and the Peterson. It is just prime, and I will put a $375 tag on it - EVERYTHING MUST GO! http://club.alembic.com/Images/411/13368.html?1105072711

I am trying to keep up with questions and sending pix, but I have to take off to the office now for yet another all-nighter. Three mo weeks and things will start to settle down a little. Sooner or later I will load my truck up (not for sale - yet!) and take all this stuff to my friends house and he will be handling the eBay hassles. Then Crazy Eddie can retire and let the mellow times roll. Off to the grind. Hey Bob, you want something, yer credit's good with me. Take yer time.

OK, the flag has gone up on the Gibbie, and I'll be filtering out the schmucks and putting you in touch with known quantities who are likely to give the bass a good home. Be warned, at least one of them is Canadian, so speak slowly.
Sell the Steinberger to Bob. Please.

Hey Flax:

Send me some of that cash you are printing up in your basement, would ya??

That was a really tempting bass, but even at that price it would have been too expensive once you got it delivered over here!!

Nice catch!

Could you post pics of the Les Paul Recording Bass?
Thanks,
Wayne

My old Les Paul Bass! As a photographer I stink. Grab copies and lighten em up in any graphics viewer. I must have sleep!

A few other items:
Pair of JBL orange-basket Fender JBL D-120F's in prime shape - the real deal!
Pair of JBL K-120-F's in excellent condition.
Couple pairs of JBL D-140F's for you bass players out there.
An absolute pritine pair of JBL D-130F's that have Fender printed on the frame - very early model, and rare.
Sorry, too burned out to go on.

God I love those old Recording basses! They have a nice warm tone. I actually ordered a lefty from Gibson back in 73' (technicaly, I guess that makes it a LP Triumph bass)and I got no response from them for about 6 months so I got my deposit back. About a year later I got this letter in the mail saying that if I still want the bass ,they were ready to make it!! By that time I had lost interest and bought a 73' Burgandyglo Rick 4001 which was much easier to find in a lefty. In retrospect I wish I had ordered the lefty LP as it would have been one rare beast! I was told by Gibson that they would not retool an existing NC router for a run of lefties. Instead they wait untill they have enough orders to warrant the purchase of a new machine. So much for handmade!?

Thom:

How much are you looking to get for the JBL speakers?

Bill, tgo

poor_nigel · « **Reply #27 on:** February 12, 2006, 11:34:18 AM »

Yo Bill, which ones? Probably the orange and black D-120Fs, rare and prime babies. If you have a twin, these are the ones! For you, less than others would pay. Let me know what you want Bill. We'll work something out. E-mail me. People have wanted to actually see some of the stuff I am selling - go figure?! OK, I had a bit of time today, so here are some group shots of stuff. I did a freebee for the company picnic and played Mr. DJ - A job I detest! But, ya gotta do stuff ya don't like every once in a while. Some of the stuff I am selling is in these pix, some ain't. eBay is coming next Sunday to probably gobble up what is left.

Some of the stuff is dusty from sitting idle for years. I hurt my leg unloading one of the Guass bottoms, and I am just too old to mess with this stuff any more. I spent a whole month working from my living room, scooting around in an office chair - no thanks! This is all the time I have today. I promised several people I would get their neat-o buys packed today and shipped tomorrow. So I have to get to packin. EVERYTHING MUST GO!!! Last week for Crazy Eddie, folks. Next week it will be insane eBay. Not my problem - Thanks Norm! Oh, for a size comparison in these pictures, it is a touch over six feet from the ground to the edge of the blue tent. That should give you some concept of size for this stuff.

Hey Guys, the Big Garage Sale is over. All items that did not sell are being packed up and taken to my friend's house to be put on the block. Thanks for playing, and you all take care.
