WTB Series I or II Long scale fretless
« on: January 21, 2023, 07:28:38 AM »
ok i'm gonna stop beating around the bush here and make it official:  i'm in the market for a series I or II fretless. 

Gotta haves:
5-string
long scale
series I or series II
right handed

sure would be nice to haves:
unlined or semilined
LEDs built in
balance-K body

other features/upgrades open for consideration.

had some good fortune make a recent serendipitous appearance at the BeenDown estates.  since it looks like i'll be playing out this summer, i'm thinking of making the MK deluxe and Essence my giggging bases and finding a fretless companion to the ebony amazon for the home setup.  that way we have balance again, dontcha know.  since the stereo rig's dialed in, got no reason to move it. why not? i dunno.. .  it's been a long morning...

i've got a pretty good idea what market value is, not afraid to pay it for the right deal.  but i'm not gonna get scalped, either.  i gots plenty of patience, not gonna pull the trigger this time unless it's the one.  my email's in my profile.  c'mon, somebody!  make an old stoner's day whydontcha?

Excellent, getting to grips with a new to to you alembic is a great feeling. I won't forget picking mine up from the Santa Rosa workshop in 2012.
