Alembic Series I four string bass
« on: September 08, 2008, 12:59:01 PM »
Hello everyone,
 
I will be listing my 4 string Series I bass on eBay later today. The bass is a 2003 Alembic Series I bass with Buckeye Burl front (bookmatched to center) and back. It has the Triple Omega body shape. The neck has red side LEDs and the inlays are abalone shell. The peghead has the recessed silver logo with abalone. The bass comes with a 5 pin cord, DS-R5 power supply, strap locks, the original paperwork with an unsigned warranty card, hard shell case and Allen Wrenchs. The bass is currently fitted with a new set of the old style knobs and the original knobs will be included with the sale (as you know there is no modification needed to interchange the old style knobs with the new knobs). The bass is in mint condition almost never played. I?m looking to get $10,000 which is less than half of the $22,000 list price (without discounts).
 
Thanks,
Mark

Whoa, this is spooky....the top wood looks like the twin to my TO (also a 2003 model).

I've never seen such similiar tops on two Alembics, especially with this wood!
Darn, just when I was starting to feel special.....
Correction: there is 'much' money to be made above the fifth fret....
