Ny 'new' 1986 Persuader (86P3916)
« on: August 29, 2011, 02:26:15 PM »
These are a bit better then my 'introduction' photos.    I dressed her up a bit with new strings and I re-worked the truss rod plate. It had some bad corrosion on it.  Now sanded and buffed out.  I may work on the tail piece too- this has a varnish coat on it that just has not stood up to the test of time (like the truss rod cover plate).  I like the bare metal with age patina better.  The truss rod plate will get that over time now (like the bridge- which did not have varnish).

Hello, I am the new owner of your Alembic Bass. Thank you for taking such great care of her. She’s a beauty in every way.
God bless you

Rudy,
Welcome to the club.   Lots of good people here with plenty of knowledge about these great instruments.

Keep it low and stay outta treble!

That's a good looking bass. I've never tried Alembic PJ pickups. Need to give them a try some time.
