BB3000s the white beauty, passive, all original gold hardware, very good concdition and a little road woarn if you like real live. new frets. -> 1200 Euro

you?ll find that alembic has cooperated with Yamaha in the 80th. please google a bit to understand that the Yamaha BB are some of the greatest basses ever and I wouldn?t sell them if I hadn?t to save Series 2
Also: one ESP or LTD Vintage fretless PJ. see Pictures -> 250 Euro
If you don?t like my prices (I know they are not the cheapest but fair) please make me an offer. pictures will follow in some seconds.

Nice basses, I love old BBs, BUT your prices are fair only in the European market. Here these basses sell for half of what you ask. Just a suggestion not a critic.

hei enzo thanks. You?re right. I think you will find similar instruments in the US very much cheaper. Thats because they are highly underrated. Especially when you compare then to the new BBs or to the BB3000MA or to other basses. I think my prices represent the value of the instruments but unfortunatly not the market prices in the US.
So my offer seems to be more interesting for Europeans but as I told the prices are not fix.

I totally understand you. I own a nearly 25 years old BB2000 and I will never sell it unless I'm doing VERY bad financially. These BBs are among the best kept secret in the market.
