thanks Bob for the clarifications.  I did also assume that series referred to the pickup configuration and the type of bass.  I was thinking that the alembic series 1, or 2 represented the top of the line, the standard that all other basses would be measured by.  Based on that interpretation, I figured that if the electronics were extended in features beyond series 2 then it would be logical to call the bass with full independent sf2 electronics a series 3.  Too bad that physical limitations would prevent that.
 
Your rogue bass must have a sound palette that's unmatched even by a series bass.

I am in the process of trying to release a bass CD (featuring several different Alembic basses, and some others) and it looks like I'm going to have sacrifice some things in order to make that happen.
 
       Therefore I am thinking of selling my SF-2 if anyone is interested.  (It has a sticker on the back indicating it is from the first run).  Also a Furman power conditioner / tuner / rack light combo unit.  For a photo please the section involving Swaps and Wish Lists.

Hi,
 
I'm back and just received my SF-2.  I can't wait to try it out this evening. My did NOT come with a manual.  Is there a club member out there who could point me in the right direction of getting one, or have one that they could send my way?
 
Thanks again for all the opinions leading up to my purchase of this.

Dave...thanks for asking and NO Luck as of yet??....I sent a note to Alembic about a week ago and have not gotten a reply??  I did figure it out to run mono and am starting to get some tasty tones from my unit....but I'd really like to have a manual with some basic guidelines.
 
If you have one, or could point me in the direction of getting one I'd REALLY appreciate it.
 
Thanks again for the response

Use the Search option for SF-2, and you'll find a number of discussions. People have also contributed the settings they use.
 
Now if someone in our Club would have the time and energy to collect those posts and re-post in a separate thread?

Thanks to Andy and Paul ( TBO )for the generous offers, and Mr Dave Houck for the delivery of the SF-2 manual this morning.  I really appreciate it!!!  And I now have one in case anyone else out there in the clubs looking as well???
 
Now at least I can jump with a parachute, and I look forward to many hours of twisting knobs to come up with that ultimate sound of all things Alembic....
 
Thanks again to a great group...
