[SOLD] Alembic Flamed Walnut Spoiler 5
« on: February 08, 2021, 10:00:20 PM »
Hey Everybody, I am looking to sell my Alembic Spoiler 5 String with a beautiful flamed walnut top, purple heart/maple neck, thick maple accent laminate, 32 inch medium scale, Spoiler Electronics, Classic Taper spacing. Truss rods are working, no fret buzz, no issues with anything whatsoever.
This bass has been played but taken care of very well with just a few little marks in the finish, mostly on the back side of the bass. The 32 inch scale in combination with the classic taper is a joy to play. The weight is around 4.6-4.7 Kilogramms according to my bathroom scale. My asking price is 2850 Euros. Location is Germany but I am willing to ship. Included is the original hardcase. Its a little beat up but does the job.
If you have any questions or want more pictures, don’t hesitate to shoot me a pm.

I don't see an option to PM you, so I'll just ask here - Can you tell me the average center to center dimension from one string to the next? I know Alembic measures the spaces in between, but I'm looking for the usual center to center style of measurement. Thank you! Beautiful Spoiler. I am in the market for a 32'' 5 string.

I tried changing my profile so that members can email me...it always says „profile has been changed“...but for some reason it doesnt seem to be working?...(Maybe a moderator can help me out here)
Anyhow I will send you a pm.
In the meantime this picture will help.

Mica , I see the email icon for all participants in this thread except Chris. Accessing his profile via the username click still does not show any option to send him an email. Just sayin'.
Also, mine is not displayed because I have not selected that option in my profile settings.
Chris, it might be worth just checking your profile settings just in case your email option has not been selected.

Hi Jazzy, yes for some reason it doesnt let me change that setting. On my profile I tick the box so that members can email me, update the settings (via entering password etc). then it says my profile has been updated...but nothing has changed.

wow that's a beautiful bass! GLWS
The bass player’s function, along with the drums, is to be the engine that drives the car… everything else is merely colours.
