Alembic Series II Long Scale Fretless on Cash Converters!

[garth4664]

Some poor guy got a loan against it and didn't pay the loan out....very sad. It's a 34 inch scale.

I anticipate it being around for a while with what you found and the current asking price.

[garth4664]

they offered it at a much more reasonable price so I bought it today. Merry Christmas everyone.😁

Congrats Garth,

Glad I posted it when I found it!!

There are site's both here & abroad that put Alembic's up for sale!!!

As I find them I will let everyone know!!

Great Christmas to you as well!!!

[garth4664]

Thanks for finding it. Just couldn’t let this one stay in cash converters...its no place for an Alembic...especially a 1979 series 2. It’s cleaning up really well tonight.

Nice score man... yeah, vintage Series II's don't come along very often.

Be blessed Garth !!!

As I said to another member ,

All the paintings must have fallen off your walls when you hit the first note !!!!!

Wow, beautiful bass, great job on the ebony nut! 

[edwardofhuncote]

Bravo on the ebony nut!   

[growlypants]

That's a beautiful bass, and I send my heartiest congrats on its acquisition!!  But, help me out for a sec - why the ebony nut?  Is it less sustain-y than the brass?  Or just aesthetically a nice change?  It's so unusual, and definitely pretty... I wonder why it isn't more widely sought out.
