50th Anniversary Fun Things!

[lbpesq]

My 50th Anniversary pin arrived in the mail.  Beautiful work and, appropriately, packed in a jewelry box! Happy 50th to the elves of Santa Rosa ... looking forward to wearing it to the Northern California gathering later this year!

Bill, tgo

I got notice Friday my 50th Anniversary pin is on the way. 

Following up on the comment a little further up-thread regarding my older Alembic pin... it is an earlier version, but not the rarer vintage cloisonné pin Mica thought, just one from a few years ago. It is however, the perfect splash of color and style on my tan suede vest, so I'll leave it there, and put the 50th Anniversary pin on my brown one. Wear both with pride of course!

Yeah, after I emailed Greg about my error later that night - I realized there was no Alembic script under the logo on his pin. Sorry for the false alarm!

Got mine!!  (Beautiful!)

Yay! I was so glad we were able to start shipping these out slightly earlier than anticipated. Also glad that you are liking them, I was so happy with how they turned out.

Now we have the next "fun thing" to share, and of course on the Alembic Club first! This highly detailed pin of Stanley Clarke's bass will probably be ready for our online store this Friday. It's not exactly tiny at 2.75" long, but it fits nicely on a jean jacket - I've been wearing the sample on mine for a week, and it's started many a conversation, people really do notice it. I'll post here first when they are ready for prime time!

This is wonderful! I will take one of the Stanley bass and 50th anniversary pins . Or just order them online. Beautiful detail!!

Love the detail...like only two visible screws per pickup 


I guess I'd be pushing it asking for fretboard LEDS,
 (hides behind couch).

I ordered an anniversary pin too.   I will be checking the mailbox daily...….

Does it come with a tiny blue box and cord?  That would be too cool!

Bill, tgo

[mica]

No blue box (I really did consider it!), but I did manage to get all 24 frets! In addition to Kris' eagle-eyes seeing the 2 visible screws on the pickups, there's a few other Easter eggs in the pin artwork for the true Stanley/Alembic nerds.

5 pins on the 5 pin jack!

Single truss rod.

5 pins on the 5 pin jack!

Yes! That was actually the hardest detail for the manufacturer.

[mica]

Single truss rod.

Yes! And with no truss rod cover of course.

I'm guessing those settings will bring a nice Stanley tone. (?)
