Just bought my first Alembic. It is a 1995 Epic with the Flamed Walnut upper body deck, and was represented as mint condition. Well, it is mint, there is not a mark on this bass, and the metals are bright and shiny!! I got a good deal too.
The question now- I see that the walnut front and the mahogany back are what I call open grain, and the neck has the usual seen satin poly. What, besides a clean dry rag, should I be putting on this body? I would think that a guitar polish would get down into the grain, and would be something I should not do.
I got the neck tools, but not the owners manual, but maybe a call to Mica might get me this important manual.
Thanks for your input on this, Bruce
