Wanted: Fretless
« on: August 29, 2019, 12:45:34 PM »
I am in the market for a fretless.  5 string would be nice.  Goes without saying I mean an Alembic.

I had an Elan 4 fretless years ago that I sold for some reason that escapes me.  Wishing I had held onto it as I've got the fretless bug myself.  Probably going to go with the fender TF fretless at some point.

Very nice one, I went to that shop yesterday. Zomnius even got to hold it in his hands :-)
It looks like new, seller has lots of experience with international sales.

Thanks.  I saw this.  Was thinking the price a bit high.  Looks beautiful.

I am going to be in Amsterdam in October.  Maybe I can get my hands on it for a test run.  If I can convince my wife this is an essential part of our vacation  8)
