Here's what's in the file for 729:
 
top: Myrtle
back: Myrtle
core: Cherry
neck: Maple and Purpleheart
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Mother of Pearl  
peghead veneers: Padauk and Zebrawood
 
The last recorded owner didn't mention the crack to us when he registered. I've added this new information in the instrument file.
 
Someday these records will all be in a database, until then, thanks for your patience.

perhaps nudge, nudge, wink, wink would be a more affectionate way to express your entheueiasm for a dialog with Mica the great (pay no attention to that woman behind the CNC machine!) All things Alembic take time. I wonder how long the folks in Kalamazoo take to respond to inquiries? Help dispell the myth that all Alembicians are high maintainance! Be strong like rock, sway like branch, rumble like earthquake, and patient like humble one at DMV.

As a fan of Monty Python, I must heartily agree with Dans assessment of polite inquiry. I'm sure all the merry folks at Alembic would concure.
Yours very truely,
Brigadier Michael Addyman, Mrs.
 
P.S. I just got the A&E compleat boxed set of Monty for Christmas.

Perhaps you don't quite yet understand the mindset of many of the people who frequent this site and have built up relationships with the Wickershams. This is a public arena and if you put up something that is able to be read, interpreted and reacted to by others then prepare to have reactions to your communication. I did not scold anyone. I put up something for people to think about. The requests, inquiries, and demands that people put on Mica and company are too numerous to mention. Keep in mind that there are also dealers, emails not involved on this site and phone calls that consume a great deal of time. It is a small,  family oriented company. Everyone has a significant investment in their equipment. That goes for new customs as well as used instruments. We (speaking for most who post) are to say the least fanatic in our devotion to this company and its creations. So in a small way it does involve us guys. No one is in competition. Though I think Rami has a good jump on many of us! Life is too short to stress about information. The folks in Santa Rosa are dancing as fast as they can and still produce one of a kind creations that make us really, really happy. In some ways we are the Knights who say NI!
To Mike Addyman Sr. I just recieved 2 more collectible figures for my growing collection. I now have Arthur, Pasty, The Black Knight and Tim the Enchanter! Go to www.sideshowtoy.com for the rest of the bunch. Have at You! It's only a model. Shhhussshhh!
