Information request - Epic 5
« on: November 25, 2003, 08:17:03 PM »
I am the very proud owner of an Epic 5-string (my first Alembic) via Ebay, but received no info with the bass......what can you tell me about S/N 98W11271?? Many thanks, Chris.  
Correction: there is 'much' money to be made above the fifth fret....

Hello Eastcoast & welcome
 
 
Here's the story about your bass

Bubinga top
mahogany body

That's all we got, no previous registered owners before you.

Valentino,
   I appreciate your quick response to my inquiry...support so far has been great, as even my new strings arrived right on time from the West coast. Already looking forward to my next Alembic!! Many thanks, Chris.

Congrats on the bass, Chris!  And by the way, I'm thinking Val meant 1998 rather than 1988 .
