Boy, am I happy! Just got my third Alembic. I think this one is a beauty! I would really like to more about it...as I have two Epics, this will be a new experience for me!

Nice figuring! I like the transition from burl to flame on the long horn. Congrats on the Elan!

got the bass from germany at 2pm today - boy, is it nice? not a mark on it = as new! just holding it has a very nice feeling to it...eccelent craftmanship, i?d say! it?ll be interesting to compare a neck-through with my Epics....

I saw this bass on ebay last week and I'm verry close in obtaining it, but why was it returned to Germany so quickly?

Hello, FC,

email sent (no, the bass is not with me, LOL).

Yep! must be hoax! I guess i'm gonna kick some a** in Germany this week-end!
Thanx for all the help speicky (maybe grab some beers after I kicked that a**) and offcourse albrecht for clearing it up
I almost sold my beloved Fender Jazz Bass V 50th anniversary for this scam!
Cheers!

good! you should always be vigilant when buying on eBAY - eBAY is full of scam-artists profiting on our insatiable lust for ALMBIC! :-)!
