Anyone Else Having Issues With The Website This Week?
« on: February 26, 2026, 10:00:12 AM »
Almost impossible on my laptop using Firefox.  VERY slow with Safari on my iPhone.  Very Frustrating.

Same here.   At times the club site won’t open.   But if I go to the Alembic Guitars site first, and then click on “Alembic club” under “People”, the club loads slowly.

Bill, tgo

been having trouble accessing the site for the last two weeks or so.  my ISP is verizon so i figgered they were having problems.  again.  gotta love those guys.  when ya have problems and contact their "customer service" and  get past their chatbots and finally reach a human (or some facsimile thereof) the firstthing they tell ya is all the stuff they sold ya the last time ya had a problem is obsolete and the only way to solver yer issue isto upgrade to new (more expensive) stuff.

I have been having trouble as well. Most of my time appears to be spent in the TLS Handshake which frequently times out or hangs until I close my browser.

Hopefully our guy will have this sorted by early next week. We're upgrading several things and have to do a little testing before we unleash it. Thanks for holding in there!

The Alembic Club is coming to a grinding halt again.  Excessive wait times.  The company site works just fine.

We are getting hit by lots of "visitors", ie. bots, etc.  As I write this we have: 9660 Guests and 9 Users; and it is indeed slow right now.

It is my understanding that there are ongoing efforts behind the scenes to address this problem, and that final decisions on various options are being made before moving forward with some changes.

It's been pretty slow and grumpy mornings around here (much like me!) but by afternoon it's much perkier (again, like me!).
