I've been looking for a short scale recently. Yesterday I went to Bass Central specifically for a Victor Wooten clinic but also to check out a 32 scale custom I saw on their website. They insisted on calling it an Essence for some reason even though it has Epic electronics. The cool part, totally coincidence, is the bass had been signed at some point by Victor Wooten, just not on that day. My birthday is next week so this is my present from my wonderful wife.

Thanks guys, my birthday is actually on the 24th but I figured as long as I'm at the store anyway what the heck.

Hey Sam, my birthday is also the 24th and I did the same thing, I bought an Alembic ( Spoiler ) as an early present. I tryed to hide it for a while so I could buy another Alembic for the actual day but I got busted hahaha !
...oh and happy birthday !

Sam, congratulations on the new bass! I know it is early, but happy birthday as well (how can it not be with a new Alembic, right? )

My 50th is next year, I wonder how early I can get my Alembic and still claim it as a birthday present. What are the rules hahah.

Hey Delano, what are the rules? When getting an Alembic on Saturday it helps if your wife comes home with a new Lexus on Friday.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am loving this 32 scale. It is extremely comfortable to play.

You should be on your knees for next 10 years saying thank you to your lovely wife! In addition, you should be washing the clothes for the next 5 yrs, food shopping for the next 5 yrs too!
If you can cook, you owe her 3 yrs (if she can stand your cooking (ha! ha!)). Happy Birthday!!
(hmm..Now if I can get my wife to purchase a series 5 string for fathers day)
