There is a backstory to this sale, posted by the seller on the Alembic Musical Instruments Fanpage on Facebook.

Tragedy or Comedy, Doc? (for those of us not socially connected ;D ) That sure is a pretty guitar. There are moments I get twitchy for a better one, but my imported Les Paul & Telecaster are more than enuff 'lektric guitar for me. Lucky to be playing at all.  :P


That being said, if this modified Distillate guitar https://reverb.com/item/29224165-alembic-distillate-mod-electric-guitar-o9462?show_sold=true ever shows up here again, she's mine. A Telecaster-ized Alembic... shoot... I'm done shoppin' around.  :-*

Well, Greg, I can't find the thread now, but I seem to recall a discussion some time back of 72-02 - an actual Tele-shaped Alembic guitar, originally built for Mr. Robt. H. Weir.  (All you gots to do is pry it from the cold, dead fingers of the Hard Rock Café (or mebbe it was the R&R HoF).

You talking about this one?

With that bridge and a truss rod cover, that’s definitely not 72-02.

My bad. I just focused on Tele Alembic. Didn't pay attention to the SN.

The one I'm thinking of has a natural finish; in the only pic I recall seeing, it was in a display case.
