Hello everyone.
I have two 2005 Orion four string basses for sale. A description of each follows. My playing (if you can call it that) doesn't deserve either of these fine instruments. Neither of them has been gigged with and they have only left the house to go with me on my lesson. They are both in mint condition and have been well taken care of (kept in their cases, fretboards have been lemon oiled every six months, etc.). Photos of each can be found
here.
The first is my coco bolo. It was purchased less than a year ago. Alembics original listing is
here. It is an awesome bass with incredible tone...just as you'd expect from coco bolo. Mother of pearl inlays and red LEDs definitely set it apart. It has brand new Alembic strings on it. Retail was $5350 and am asking $2,800.
The second bass is a custom based on Alembic's East Meets West. This bass is only 8 months old. The factory to customer thread is
here. This bass has a stunning 5A quilted maple top, purple heart accent, and a beautiful ash body with nearest neighbor backplates. The fretboard has nicely figured abalone oval inlays. This is an incredible bass and definitely belongs in someone's hands that can really make it sing. Retail was right at $6000 and am will to let it go to a good home for $3,400.
These basses are killer deals considering Alembic's price increases over the last year. As I said, these basses are in the same condition as the day I received them and have never been used in performance.
I wanted to give you Alembicians the first crack at these. You know how nice these instruments are.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks for your time.
Troy
