That tulipwood is a beauty!  It's hard to see, but it looks like the walnut on the birds eye box has some interesting figure too.

Jimmy - Redwood has your name on it, thanks!  
 
Tom - the Tulipwood was still available, so I've got it reserved for you. Too bad we we a little too late to get it packed with your new Skylark. Oh well, getting two packages with nice wooden stuff is okay.
 
Paul - I'm hoping for some Coco Bolo in the next batch. When I see one, I'll hold it for you. Next batch will be ready early October.
 
Bob - there is a little bit of burl along one edge of the Walnut on the top of the Bird's-eye Maple box. The Maple is also nicely figured on that one.  
 
What's left: Zebrawood, Flame Walnut, Bird's-eye Maple. Maybe I was too hopeful about getting these in the store tonight, we'll see how I feel after cooking dinner.

TIA,

Mica, if you're positive about C.O.D. internationally also, I'd like to reserve the Flame Walnut box (if it's still available due to the time difference). I'll e-mail all necessary info to you immediately to the address mentioned in your profile...
 
Thanks,
Wilfred

Mica, I'd like to purchase the Zebrawood box, if it's still available.  I'll call you later on today to give you the credit card data.
Thanks.

Now you have to admit  -and NO OFFENCE INTENDED, pure professionally spoken and I KNOW what I am talking about- that this club is one of the most outstanding marketing and sales tools ever imagined. The pictures were posted at September 19, 2004 - 8:55 pm. It is September 21 now and everything is sold! Can you imagine. I BET there are a new batch of boxes coming and they will dissappear as quick even without introducing this to the non-club market (and I DO believe that the outstanding craftmanship of Alembic would made them sell also out-there ...Alembic is better in small boxes than in big closets for guitar grin-grin-grin).
I already HAD a short/quick talk with Mica over the phone  -aaaaah those phone moments with Mica, those were the days- about this Alembic internet-club-sales-marketing strategy and I must say it IS quite AMAZING. I used it in the last season of marketing classes I could give in high-school. Believe me ...this club was INTENSIVELY studied by Belgian marketing students.  
 
 
Paul the bad one
 
Yes ...I know what you would ask ...alas there was no Alembic buyer in those bunch leave alone a bass-player!

Mica, thanks SO much for bringing these back for us. I regretted missing out the first time. I've missed out THIS time too (dang email backlog) but I will get onboard next time I see one which appeals to my gift giving spirit. ;-)
 
Maybe Bubinga?
