4 String Stanley Clarke Deluxe Bass for sale

I guess if you already have a Series I you may very well find the sound of the Signatures slightly inferiour. However not having a series bass yet. I am completely happy with the sound of my sc deluxe and would relish the opportunity to make that side by side assessment.
 
That said, I would probably say that they just sound different rather than be disappointed with the SC Sound, it is still an awesome bass.

The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

Don't get me wrong, I really liked the bass which had a much better sound than some of the basses I have. Looked awesome as well, even my girlfriend agreed! I had about 10 cigs while I made up my mind but what it really came down to was the fact that I really want a Series II so I should wait until one comes up. I was ready for buying without trying but I'm glad I did coz I'd have always had this little voice in my head telling me I should have waited.
 
Maybe when I'm a little less busy we could meet up and you could try the Series side by side.

I'm so bummed not bidding on it - I even had all the money ready for the BiN on the Saturday...
 
only Alembic I've ever played was that MK standard at the Bass Gallery. Was truly beautiful, and played so clearly. A little too clear for my liking - I prefer 3 month old strings (played about 5 hours per week) and I always have Treble 4 Mid 6 Bass 7 on my old Roland 60 Cube amp (yep, one of those orange-tolex covered things!!)
 
Must be trying to sound like James Jamerson all the time!
