(x) History request: 863961

[LionDriver]

I have inherited this Alembic. Looking for any info and history on it. My step father owned it since at least the early 00’s. Thanks!

It has the side LEDs and has a couple wear/damage spots. 1 half inch gash and the scrape you can see on the front near the top horn. Also, on the back there is a little crazing near the top horn. Nothing huge, but she has been played.

The original owner registered in California. In 2009 we replaced the neck pickup, added new modular connectors to the original pickups. We also cut a new string nut and replaced the power cord on the DS-5 power supply. Looks like there was a concern about intonation, but our notes indicate that with non-tapewound strings there were no intonation issues.

Thank you very much, appreciate it.
