Mica, then what, a pinstripe neckthru instead of the purpleheart?

I love ALEMBICs in COLOR.

Hi Doc
The ebony Rogue 5 I got from you at GS is my main bass. I set the switches like you, bass boost, treble cut, Q on. I turn the filter all the way open, with TI flats. It's got a strong low D through a 15...it's a great club bass! Good luck with this Europa. What scale is it?

It's such a great tone setting. Nice and punchy for the fingerstyle funk.

As the ever correcting/ever guiding clubmembers know, I've owned alot of Alembics and expressed some humblingly ignorant opinions which have been corrected faster than an incontinent poleman at the top of a 250K volt metal tower; however, I've seen at least 3 of these in the last 2 years and they're beautiful. My only Alembic, having sold the legendary Mandarin, is a 4 string Europa w/side LED's and I love it. It's a rock-and-roll dream! Plenty of punch. Plenty of thud. I can dial it all in! Muddy. Clear. It's all there............plus a light show! Europa's rule and I think we should welcome this seller to our fold and sing the praises of his bass. If I weren't selling my Surine Esprit S/N 001EX 5 string to fund my fretless 5 string Surine, I'd buy this thing. IMHO, it's absolutely beautiful!

Unfortunately it did not sell. Would you like to be the new owner/lover of this fine instrument.
