Has there been a price increase this year?
« on: May 04, 2024, 05:04:10 AM »
Hi All,
I was wondering if there has been a price increase
by the mothership in 2024?
Haven’t read anything about it or did I miss it?
Many thanks for a hint.

I guess you may have to wait till the $US falls against your currency. 🫣🧐

The online price list shows, "Retail prices effective May 5, 2024" ...

As far as the used market it does appear that at least of few of the Alembic instruments languishing on Reverb have had some recent hefty price reductions. Some of the "ambitious" prices provide good entertainment value and eye candy but little incentive to actually pull the trigger.

kinda looks like things have plateaued - digging thru my sold watch list shows about $4500 for an essence these days, 6K for a respectable series I, $800 for an F2-B.  looks like ya need at least $25k for an SII, tho.

those
prices don't seem to plateaued.
