Custom Blue Bass - Spoiler Body Orion electronics
« on: November 30, 2006, 09:11:39 AM »
I'm considering selling my custom blue bass.  It was made in 2006 and is in mint condition.  I have been playing mostly my short scale basses lately and this one hasn't seen much action.  Here are the specs:
32 medium scale
Spoiler Body
Set neck
Double Fatboy pickups
Maple neck, satin finish
rosewood board with oval inlays
ebony peghead
blue gloss on body
electronic compartment in front
Orion Electronics
 
if interested, please email me at:

here is a pic.

That might actually get this weeks Most Interesting Alembic award.  Thats really cool.  Was it made to use specifically for a show or something.

Very unique!
 ... dont do it, or at least think a little bit more before selling this one. Your situation may change and you may find yourself sorry to have let this one go.
Just my opinion
Good luck in your sale! I actually wish I had the cash to make you a fair offer.

thanks guys.  yes, i haven't absolutely committed to selling yet.  we will see...
 
sound wise the bass has power with the two fatboys.  sounds fantastic.  it's also pretty light weight for an alembic (do to the alder body).  these were some email questions i got.

Very cool bass, though Alembics in solid colors always look kind of strange to me.

Price drop $2100 including shipping in the USA.
   
Just a note - it is not up on ebay anymore!  People have told me that they have seen the bass for sale elsewhere.  If it is anywhere else, it's a scam!  I'm only posting for sale here at the moment.  For more info on the bass send me a msg or contact Alembic directly. Thank you.
