'77 Series I Short Scale
« Reply #15 on: September 29, 2006, 08:08:01 AM »
What kind of wood is that? Koa?
Are the body wings a solid piece or does it have front and back laminates?
I'd also be curious about a price...
Thanks,
Charles

I've got a search posted to get exact specs.
Serial #77 783.  The 8 is punched faintly and
looked to be a 6 but it's not.  The body has a  
mahogany core and front/back laminates. I'm
not sure about the laminates - perhaps flamed
walnut?
I do remember Alembic replaced the fingerboard
over 20 years ago and there is one replacement
tuner.
$3400 with case, cord and power supply.

Drool...
 
I wish I was in a position to grab this bass. Instead I'm just going to take deep breaths and chant over and over again, Someday there will be another....

Mica has posted further information about this bass
on the serial numbers/history requests section of
Owning an Alembic.  Look under 77-783.

Hello 365kit,
I wonder if the bass is still available. Do you have more pics ( headstock front/back etc)?
Thank you, Juergen

Hello Scott,
somehow we lost touch via email...
Are you still interested in selling the bass(unless you sold it already)?  
Regards, Juergen
