FT: Custom Distillate [SOLD]
« on: February 21, 2011, 07:25:42 AM »
Hi Guys, Looking for a trade for another Alembic only.
Only reason why I am trading is because I truly miss having a blend control for the PuPs....
Looking for a nice (neck through) comparably priced 4 or 5 string ($2500 range) without a pickup switch.  
The bass has a lot on nice custom options and does not have a mark on her.
Quilt top and back
Chrome Hardware
Red LEDs
Side mounted jack
Ovals
OHSC

thanks for looking!

Hello, I cannot get in to edit my original post. But unfortunately I need to sell the bass which means no straight trades on this one... I can do trades + cash as long as its roughly $1200 on your end.  
Im open to other basses let me know what you have in mind.
 thanks

You responded to an post I had for a custom Alembic short scale small standard body that you were interested in. I'm interested in a medium scale with a Distillate body and side LED's. My bass has a pickup blend, not a switch. What do you think of a possible trade. What are the fingerboard dimensions at the nut and 24th fret?

Thats OK. Since I put that bass up for sale I've been playing it more and it's such a cool little bass I want to keep it if possible. The plan is to have another MK Deluxe built with a Distillate body possibly, but definitely Quilted Maple, medium scale, side LED's and front Laser LED's set up with light gauge strings. But first I have to get my MK5 Deluxe 35 scale with Coco bolo and an Ebony neck laminate replacing one of the Purple Heart with the full light show. Can't to see that one when it's done. Then I can start the process for the medium scale bass. Good luck with your sale.
