Cheers for that . However York was the location given to us in the tour schedule for this year so I think I can be forgiven for that.
I've been and checked the web site and yes we are listed so it must be there.

I've just got back from our last gig at the rototom reggae festival in Italy. Fantastic, huge place very much like the Womad festivals.

Being on the road with Apache and the band is a great experience. On stage we have a great time and the audiences seem to like us too.

I'd be interested in reading the review too. lol
I know the Alembic guitar should get a good review even if those around it don't lol.

Sorry Jazzyvee: criticism was not intended. I realise you're only quoting what you've been told. The last Alembic I saw being played was the legendary Osage Orange in May 77.

Dave: having just read Bike Week, please don't think I'm seriously complaining; I appreciate the job you do here, and the (normally) respectful way people treat each other here. lol

Mark; I would really like to see JV playing at one of those festivals; so if a fellow club member can go in my stead, I'm happy!

I'm in London and I have a few of friends with Alembics too, some of whom post here. I'm also an admin of Bassworld.co.uk so feel free to sign up and send a shout out to other Alembic users if you like. I know of about 5 or 6 at least.

Will post some photo's of my Alembic in action lol.

Hi Brit Alembics I made the mistake of selling a beautiful 4 String Epic to A London Bass SHop about seven or eight years ago and wondered if anybody knows where she went, it was serial No.96W9975 I'd just like to know how she's doing. If anyone knows.

If any of the uk members have a series I or II bass for sale in small standard body 4 string(clarkee styleee) or Europa style 5 or 6. I'd be interested at the right price. :-)

But I would consider other body styles if the condition is good. Preferably newer models as I have a mortgage and dont want to have to splash out a fortune to get the electronics upgrade due to interference etc.

Jazzy-
It's not the UK, but BassNW ships anywhere worldwide and they've got a nice Rogue 5 right now. They're asking $2500US- Looks to be in outstanding condition~
Linky thingy:

Hi I am Malcolm current bass player with 'State of Undress' from Poole UK . I play an Alembic 6 String custom with series 2 electrics, a Classico EUB (one of only two stereo ones in the world), and a 5 string Alembic Elan. As you may gather I like Alembics. Catch me at the Virgin Megastore 6pm 4th October playing instore to promote the CD, or at a gig ( www.stateofundress.com )we play all over so check out the gig list.

Hi Malcolm and welcome to the club. Nice website but no Alembic pics! lets see some pictures in the showcase. You'll be the first classico on there.
