Hello Everyone!
« on: June 14, 2024, 02:41:42 PM »
I'm Nol. I'm from  West Warwick, Rhode Island, and I've been an Alembic fan since I was 12 years old, right around the time I discovered Stanley Clarke. I was hooked ever since. I've just recently come into possession of a 2002 Stanley Clarke Standard model. I couldn't be happier. I'm still getting acquainted with the bass, and I still have no idea how the controls work, but I love it. One thing I thought was kind of peculiar was that I thought the standard model had a plastic control panel. Mine is brass. Anyway, I'm rambling! Thanks for having me here.

Hi Nol! It's kind of funny, but we rarely make a build with the default specifications. The curse of custom :) You can find details about the controls here:

I'll email you about the case availability next week - I have to double check inventory with Mary then. Meanwhile, welcome to the Club, and feel free to poke around a bit. I doubt you'll find a more helpful group of folks.

Hi Mica!

That would be awesome!
Something tells me that the bass was in its case and the case was in some standing water. This is all speculation, but the case has a moldy/mildewy odor inside and out.
Of course, there's also the rust.
I honestly don't know how the bass is in its current condition.
I'll have some pictures uploaded in a few minutes.
